Name | Scott P |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | Started out as a very bright streak of white, then finished as a huge green fireball. It was a very shallow arc from where I was sitting, on my back deck facing approximately a WNW direction. Due to the rising landscape in my backyard, it was a very brief viewing, but I believe I witnessed the whole appearance of the object. |
