As we neared our home, XXXX, Madison, Wis.("NEO"), I sighted a bright light in the northwest sky, apparently moving at high speed. I said to Madison, "Look at that strange light in the sky." We watched it for about 15-20 seconds as it disappeared from sight, going toward the northwest. I am quite familiar with all types of aircraft, and this was completely different from anything I have ever observed before.
