Reports Report 2307gh (Event 2307-2018)

Observer
Name John H
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It was still fairly bright twilight when I saw this object which made me doubt what I saw at first. It left a trail of sparks but too bright to see smoke trail. This moved too fast for an airplane or satellite and its trajectory was almost straight. I would say it could have been a fireworks rocket except it moved too fast, too straight for too long.
