| Name | Richard D |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was looking east to see if I could the see the launch of the supply mission to the space station from Wallops Island. Launch was supposed to go at 645 and went outside around 644 and watched the sky for around 3 minutes when all of sudden I saw something moving at a high rate of speed from east to west. lasted maybe 5 seconds. I could see it so I could follow it with my finger as I was pointing to it, so my wife might see it, then it was gone. |
