| Name | Susan A |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It was a dark night with a clear view of the stars and a gibbous moon. The entire sky lit up, like someone turned on a fluorescent light. It had a bright white-green ball with an orange tail, that arced in the sky and as it descended towards us, the tail wiggled back and forth as it fizzled out. |
