| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Kim W |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It was so bright, close and much bigger than a shooting star or meteor it really caught my attention. My viewing location was in Oregon, across the Columbia River from Longview, WA. The object traveled the trajectory indicated, going out of view near the Longview, WA location because of trees obstructing my view. |
