| Name | Jen |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was the most spectacular thing I've seen in the sky. It was incredibly bright and it looked like it was so close to the earth. The direction it was moving looked like it was going to land in the road ahead of me. The fire coming off of the whole thing just lit up the sky. After it had passed in front of me it just disappeared. I feel like it was so intensely bright that every person driving around me had to have seen it as well. First things to come to mind are that it was very bright, very close, and very amazing. |
