Last night while going to work, I come out of my house the moon is very bright, I look up at the nightsky. Obviously I work the third shift/Night shift anyways I always check the nightsky out, I am very familar with the night sky and where stars should be and what not. I have always looked up to try to glimpse something out of this world and I am very familar with what airplanes looks like and stars. With that said. As I step out of my house, I see the very brightly lit moon sky. Though the one thing that immediately caught my eye was to my left as I stepped out of the house. There was this Extremely bright looking star and it seemed to stand out above everything in the night sky, even made saturn that was under the moon and to the right a little look pale in comparison. It was a very bright white starlight. I was like, hey that's not supposed to be there and as soon as I thought that it grew even brighter and then started move off and seemed to power down a little to some orangish color but as it was this orangish color it stated to move away and seemed to get to the brightness of the background stars, but the color was still discernable as it was moving away It just seemed as it faded almost in the night sky with the other stars but I was able to still follow it because it was moving in a northe east direction for a little bit. I tried to follow it in my truck but I just lost it as I turned to get into my truck. When I turned back I had lost it, my eyes couldnt readjust cause of the bright moonlight and I was having a hard time distinguishingit between the other dimly lit stars in the same area that almost looked like it and so I gave up following it.
