| Name | Colby E |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | My children and I were driving East bound on IH-10 at 11:45pm, when I noticed a bright glowing white light flickering, just in the north east sky. It flickered for a second, then immediately grew to the size of a full moon in the sky, turned a very lime green color, appeared to turn towards the North, dove downward toward the horizon before disappearing, leaving a long lime green and white tail behind. My son did not see object appear, but saw the object as it crossed the sky outside of my window in the car. |
