In my front yard a small close or big and far light went zipping across the sky

I saw either a small light that was close or a huge light that was really far cross a gap in between trees in my front yard. I thought it was an meteor or asteroid, but it had no tail. It looked like a star in the night sky moving really fast. Shortly after a plane flew over so I'm convinced it wasn't that. I live in Amador county in northern California and this isn't a hot spot. I'm a firm believer that aliens are out there, but to this day I still don't know what I saw. There is a report from September of a couple green lights over neighboring Calaveras County that were caught in photo and video. One witness wasn't a resident either, just a road tripper. I don't feel that I'm in any danger, but would like to see if anyone else has reported anything about the incident.
