| Remarks | white bright sudden light in the east, It didn't appear to have a sonic kind of brilliant flash just seem like a sudden bright lit white and blue colored object that came in at a low angle rather low on the horizon. I t lasted about a second and at the end it seem like the front of the object sectioned into four pieces tightly bound pieces. |
