That was a great view. I've only ever seen 1 like that live as a kid. Hooked me on searching the skies for life.

Better with sound off tho!

I saw a fairly large one when I was about seventeen or so, maybe eighteen. I was outside late one night by myself. It was winter, cold and crystal clear skies. It passed in front of me, left to right. I had a great view of it, just happened to be looking up when it appeared. No way to gauge the height of it, but there was not a sound.

Same, I can still see it if I close my eyes and that was 30 years ago.
