Observer
Name Jona I
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I've never seen anything like this before. I guess it is possible it was a low shooting star, but the ball of light and train was very bright and large that it caught my attention peripherally. It lasted long enough I was able to look directly toward it and see it streak
