Observer
Name Whitney C
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks What I saw I had never seen before. It was literally a ball of light that fell from the sky for roughly a few seconds and then looks as though it evaporated or fizzled out in the atmosphere leaving a tail from the top where I originally saw the “ball of light” falling from
