It more than likely is a plane, since I've seen similar optical illusions before. As the sun sets, the sky changes colour. This is due to dust particles and whatnot in the sky, and as a result the light is refracted along a different spectrum.
There is also the "bending of light", which in and of itself can give some illusions. many times before have I seen "comets" in the darkening sky with a ball at the end and a trail behind it heading to the ground.
Also, notice the poor image quality... The ball almost glows/shines the way a planes fuselage does when the light hits it at the right angle.
Pretty much everything I've been brought up with and even my gut tells me this is a jetplane.
Your gut is wrong, throw it into photoshop and blow it up 1000% it is not a plane. Not sure what it is but its not a plane
