Observer
Name	D L
Experience Level	1/5
Remarks	I was sitting in bed and saw a REALLY bright light moving across the sky. it was brighter than airplane lights and at first i thought it was a really close plane, but i thought it was weird that the lights weren’t flashing or anything so i looked it up and no flights were in the area! I went online and saw that other people reported seeing a shooting star the same time!
