| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Mark C |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving on the highway and saw this near the top of the windshield and moving downward in the same direction I was traveling (East). It was only 1-3 seconds, and I had to watch the road! I'm not sure of exact location on highway where I saw it, but we were not far from I-635. It was bright enough to get my attention away from the road/traffic. |
