| Name | Lisa G |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | There was no tail, at least not a long one. It looked like a ball with maybe a stub behind it, like a blunted sideways teardrop shape. What I saw fell in an arc, not a straight angled line. I am not sure if the light went out or just disappeared below tree line. I am not 100 percent sure I remember color right, but it was bright and large. Thjis wasnt comparableto looking at a large star. I am trying to remember if it just showed up or crossed my line of vision, I seem to remember it just showed up like a flash before falling in an arc shape. |
