| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | J'Neice P |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It looked so large, like the size of my fist in the sky, big bright ball of white light traveling directly above where I was standing, it looked so low, almost thought it was a jet at first but couldn't explain why it was so bright in the blue, morning sky and why I didn't hear any jet engines cracking. It also had pretty long tail but left nothing residual in the sky. One other person was with me and also saw the same exact thing. |
