Sorry for wasting your time if this isn’t a meteor or something similar. I did some research but couldn’t find anything regarding sparks coming off an object. Maybe this is a large piece of metal from a satellite falling to earth, I’m not sure.

Remarks
Never seen anything like this before. Best way I can describe it is it looked like orange sparks trailing from the object. This lasted the whole time it flew by the window which was around 20 seconds. The whole event lasted longer than this since I didn’t see the start and end, only as much as my window frame would allow until it went out of sight.
