| Observer | |

| Name | Scott P |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Looked like a bright glow with a green-ish trail that dissipated quickly. Seemed high up, but not very far away. I was facing West, and it appeared to be moving towards the North-West. Only lasted 1-2 seconds after I saw it. No idea how long it was visible before I noticed it. This happened minutes ago. I've never seen anything like it... |
