| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | The object was seen by my daughter and myself, we had just stepped outside from a very bright room and could clearly see the object even though there were multiple street lights and a full moon, the object was much brighter and more colorful than average meteor and looked as if would land in ocean. |
