| Name | Theresa P |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | This seemed as though is was coming straight at me. So it was more like a bright star in the sky, that's what made me notice it. It was out of place. Then it got a little brighter and then a terminal flash. Not lasting more that 2 or 3 seconds. Thought maybe it was a satellite, but the way it seemed it was moving and the slight flash at the end made me think fireball. |
