| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | The trail was thick but short. The brightest part was wide. It did not look like a jet or plane and the trail was disappearing quickly. There was a flying object in the sky as well so it was simple to compare. The brightness grew bigger quickly. I saw a hot flash with red, orange, yellow colors. I wondered if it was metal reflecting sunlight for a split second. Once that passed, the whole thing disappeared quickly. |
