| Name | Pamela C |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Object was visually approx. size of thumbnail, as if you were holding your thumb directly in front of you and trying to cover image. Object had a very well defined bright, slightly curved triangular shaped tail, about twice the size of object (in length). The tail did not linger but traveled rapidly with "meteor", as if it was attached to it. In all, object & tail were very bright & vivid and the shapes were well-defined (not blurred). I've never seen anything like it. |
