Observer
Name Jaimie D
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was driving home from Palm Coast and i saw it. It was bright green and only there for a few seconds. It was definitely coming down. At first I thought it was a firework but there was no noise and I never saw a firework go up and there were none before or after it. I waited and kept looking to see if there was another but it was the only one.
