Object witnessed, Edmonton AB, July 4 2023

The time was about 8:45pm, still full daylight and the sun was pretty west. The object was moving from east to west, and below the cloud-line, (although there were not alot of clouds around, only to the west, so the object was mostly seen in a clear sky.) The object moved silently, in a fixed position, (meaning it did not rotate in any direction), maintained a steady speed which was not particularly fast by any means, and also maintained a straight line with no change in altitude, or side-to-side movement, indicating it was not being affected by wind gusts. Its lack of any kind of movement other than its straight path from east to west allowed me to rule out balloons and birds, as well, I ruled out it being a drone based off of the fact that it stretched such a large distance in its path, and in my admittedly limited knowledge of drones, there is a limit to how far they can go, (and I believe there are some laws about drone use in the city.) To the naked eye, it looked like a black blob, I estimated the size would have been the same as a small vehicle. There was no sun reflection, (although the sun was on the opposing side to where we were), nor were there any lights.
