I was on a walk around the neighborhood looking up at the sky because there were very few clouds in the sky and I could see the stars very clearly. Then I saw this bright white light streak across the sky from my right to my left heading East across the horizon with a slightly downturned angle and then it disappeared within a matter of seconds.
