| Name | Walter W |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | I was traveling East-West along the South road of the retention pond at the papermill in Ashdown Ark. I first saw what I thought was a flash of lightning, lighting up the entire sky. Then I saw the object in front of me moving down from right to left at about at 45 angle. It was about the size of a full moon, green and leaving a trail of sparks. It disapeared behind a tree line in the SW. There was a lite fog and if there was a train, it was obscrubed. |
