| Remarks | it was super dark, clear sky. walking towards the east/northeast, something caught my eye off to the left, maybe it flashed to start out with? when I turned my head, light was quickly moving down, leaving a trail. back end was white, front end was white, then blue/purple ish as it got closer to the horizon. No boom or flash after the horizon hid it from my view. |
