Observer
Name Quent N
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It appeared at about 10 oclock on a clock face in the sky and was going the same direction as our car. It was incredibly fast and just seemed to disappear after a few seconds. Very bright green and seemed very low in the sky. We would love to know if anyone else saw it or was captured on film. Thank you
