| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | We were playing an outdoor bean bag game and something bright caught the edge of my vision and I looked up and saw this crazy bright and thick meteor/fireball, my husband and sister looked up and saw it, and we could not believe how defined it was and how long it lasted!! ***we all thought it reminded us of a firework because we've only ever seen fireworks burn that bright and thick, except it lasted way longer than any firework we'd ever seen, and moved in a perfectly straight line with a consistent brightness. I got so excited because I just was shocked that we had all seen it!! |
