Name | sarah |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | In total I must have been watching the object, from the second I saw a single bright light coming towards me (east to west), to the point where it disappeared completely (not behind anything, as we saw it over the sea, so when it finally finished rather than disappeared) i would have been watching for at least 20 seconds. It must have started leaving a trail of burning fragments about 8 seconds in. |
