Observer
Name Ryan A
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Please redact any audio prior to publishing as I caught it at work. This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever personally witnessed!! Sadly it reminded me of Columbia video. And no large explosion like a typical meteor... definitely think it’s space debris of some kind.
