It was brightest energy ball of light hovering to the east of my street.

Let me first say that it was a long time ago. I was about 12 or 13 in age. I'm 36 now.I remember the air was cool out, And the sky was clear. 
I was alone. I walk out to the front of my house,And into the center of the street. I was going to a friends house, When I turned to my right witch was too the east of me and saw a bright light.
It appeered at the end of the street. But actually it was way beoned that. I know this because there were big thick tree's at the end of the block. And the ball of light was in the middle but beoned it . About a nother block or so. It just hover there. I'm going too say about 10 to 15 sec. 
Then all at once it Shot at a angle, Until it desapered out of the earth's atmosphere. I was very fast. I know it was not somthing that I had seen before. I know how ariplanes and helicopter worked.And no firecrackes could do this. 
I ran back inside and told my parent's what I seen. They said they belived me. But inside I felt like they really didn't. I never told anyone else.It was the most breth taking thing I ever saw.
Witness indicates that date of sighting is approximate.  PD
