| Name | Belinda M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This object was sphere in shape and from my distance, looked smaller than a basket ball but bigger than a soft ball in size. It traveled from east to west and passed behind a thin layer of cloud that appeared to be too low. The green ball shaped light was still visible behind the thin layer of cloud as it continued its path but as soon as it was no longer partially covered by the thin cloud (partially as in it was still visible regardless of it being behind this thin layer cloud), in a fraction of a second it disappeared before my eyes as if magically gone with no warning or it gradually disappearing. As if it knew it was no longer partially covered and did not want to be noticed. |
