Reports Report 1585a (Event 1585-2012)

Observer
Name Michael S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks This sighting was in the morning and it was fully light outside. I have not seen such a thing during the day. I immediately got on the internet when I got home to see if anyone else reported anything. As I said before, it was moving very fast and I saw it travel a long way. It was amazing. I hope somebody else saw this, so I\'m not the \"crazy\" one living in my house. Thanks.
