| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | J H |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was riding my motorcycle at the time with full face helmet. The visor of my helmet is tinted and I wear polarized sunglasses under my helmet, both items negatively impact my ability to accurately describe the magnitude and color of what I saw... Additionally, due to being on my motorcycle all I can accurately say is that the bright object I saw appeared left of center from my direction of travel. |
