I got caught completely off-guard, so don't have much detail.

About 2305 (0605Z) PST +/- a few minutes.

Went outside to shut down irrigation system, caught sight of something 
bright to my left, in the sky, but low.

Roughly 310-330 degrees azimuth, observed from a few miles north of 
Yerington, Nevada.

A brilliant line in the sky, almost had a glowing haze around it, 
gold/pink in color, moving roughly west, to roughly east.

Moving very slow.

Ran to get a camera, within 10-15 seconds, whatever it was, was gone.

Difficult to tell if the line was solid, or a series of tight spots, 
almost like a fuzzy line from an old dot matrix computer.

Length was roughly the same as my index finger at arms length.

Ideas?

Kurt
