| Name | Nicole W |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Remarkable! Last thing I've seen this impressive was in southern sky , about a year ago , bright green. For this , I was laying flat , looking straight up feet facing south , head facing north. It caught my eye and I turned right to watch it and it was absolutely amazing. Tail end was south , front of it went north and dipped down some . This is the best I can describe it through text. |
