Joseph U
Experience Level
2/5
Remarks
The viewing lasted about 4 seconds then disappeared below the horizon still intact. The path was from upper right to lower left as I was facing East. The "ball" was well defined with a tail that was approximately three to four times the diameter of the ball in length.
