Remarks | My wife and I were traveling when we saw this amazing light go across the sky in a downard left motion, at first we thought perhaps it was a shooting star until it got bigger and then turned colors. It really seemed to be very close, and we were expecting to see a fire on the ground. I am glad that we were not alone in viewing this last night. |
