| Name | Nicole B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | We heard what sounded like Thunder, muted our TV and I looked outside in the sky. I instantly grabbed my phone after seeing a bright Fireball in the sky above. I started filming it as it was traveling across the sky as if it was a fast airplane plane. It was definitely not a plane. I asked my fiance to come look and when he saw it he ran and grabbed his rifle with his scope. He laid down outside and tried to see what it was using his scope. That's when I saw a second one and within seconds the 1st one disappeared as if going into the atmosphere. Then moments later the second and 3rd one we observed faded as well. After viewing from his scope, he confirmed that it definitely was not a plane and was very far up near the atmosphere. I have this all on video. |
