Reports Report 4559t (Event 4559-2016)

Observer
Name Ronald V
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks At first I thought it was an airplane strobe light for a plane landing to the south at Grayson County Airport (North Texas Regionale Airport) the old Perrin AFB, until 3-4 smaller bright lights appeared behind the larger leading light. Then I figured it was space junk or a meteor breaking apart.
