Name | David M |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | It was a huge, close and bright. It blazed across the sky, moving north against the orange and deep purple tapestry of the setting sun. Unlike any shooting stars I\'ve seen in the past its colors radiated of orange and red, white and bluish and sparkled until it flashed, then disappeared on the horizon. |
