There were two other people who also saw it with me. It lasted long enought for me to tell them to look, we stood up and walked toward it and we watched it for several seconds and all wondered what in the world it was.

Remarks
It seemed to be very bright while it was streaking, then extinguish a little and flared/flashed bright hot white again as it travelled steadily in a very slight arc downward from my upper right corner of vision to left and downward a bit.
