| Name | Sonya M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I had watched the object as I was driving down Veteran's Parkway starting at the State Farm Building. The object caught my eye as I thought it was a plane coming in with landing lights on, but it was orange. As I drove down the road I monitored the object. I didn't see anything other than the color and unusually larger size of the item, however I kept monitoring it and analyzing it. There was no tail. Then as we past HyVee it flashed. My daughter that was sitting behind me also saw the flash. The detailed information in this report is that of the flash. Another unique detail of the object was that it appeared square not round (prior to the flash.) The flash was blue/orange in the center with a green aura. The object was not at all viewable after the flash and I was looking for fire trails. |
