| Name | matt s |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have never seen anything like it. Looked very very close because it was on the horizon. I know what shooting starts look like. It wasn't that, so I looked it up. At first I thought that it could be a missile, but it didn't explode it just disappeared. |
