Reports Report 1407a (Event 1407-2012)

Observer
Name Mark A
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It was a teardrop shaped ball, bright green. It appeared in the sky as if it had just entered the atmosphere and traveled for what I preseved to be from almost true north traveling east. It disappeared below the horizon. Because I had my radio playing I did not hear any sounds from the object. I travel M32 at this time twice a week traveling East home from teaching GED/HSC in Atlanta, MI to the Alpena, MI area. I cannot truely pinpoint where I was because I had substitute taught in a classroom in Alpena from 7:15 until 2:30 then drove to Atlanta where I teach from 4PM until 8PM. I was a little tired and am not sure exactly where I was on that route that night. I did make a monotonous drive in the dark a bit more exciting!
