Reports Report 2443c (Event 2443-2021)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Greg I |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was struck by how low the object appeared to be, and I felt as though I could make out flame interacting with the atmosphere. My son flies drones, and this object appeared to be half the size of a standard DJI drone. I listened two minutes for a terminal explosion but did not detect one. I was left with a feeling of primitive awe. I am 61 and have never seen anything like this before. |
