| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Just what a wonderful experience that I happened to be outside at that moment and happened to be looking that way (!) my time of 10:45 pm is approximate. My guess when i came in. I see two other people reported it at 10:40 and 42 i believe in the general L.A. Area. And my email address seems weirdly appropriate at the moment :) |

| Remarks | Saw a ball of fire , head moving to the left was green and the tail was white , perhaps this was just the whole thing and not a trail. Also could not get your red horizon thing to move. Did not see a large downward movement. Saw this between a few trees , not the whole sky. It pretty much went across and only slightly down within my field of view at the time. Definitely no sound. At first thought oh this must be fireworks somewhere (!) but there was NO sound so I thought hmmmm what WAS that?? Since was very clearly green |
