Reports Report 2932t (Event 2932-2015)

Observer
Name Kevin B
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks this looked just like a very bright star moving rapidly in an arc across half the sky. It moved about the same speed as a typical shooting star (maybe not quite as fast). It didn't burn out or fade at all in the five to seven seconds I watched it until it was out of sight behind the trees, and it didn't have a tail.
