| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have never seen anything like that; it looked like a green fireball, with the front glowing orange, and a long bright green tail. It was as bright as a firework, seemed to be just above the tall pine trees. I have some astronomy, always looking at the night sky. I grew up in this neighborhood and now live in the same neighborhood as an adult and I’ve never seen anything like that, it was startling but very cool to see. |
