| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | My husband and i seen it while we were outside. We both thought it was a shooting star at first, but then it just kept going. It was definitely getting closer and it looked to be on fire. It was very bright and was going downwards. We lost sight of it behind the trees next to our place, but it looked to be pretty low and it couldn't have gone too far from where we were. It was a decent size. Very crazy to see! Would love to know if anyone else seen this. |
