| Name | Lisa H |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I just walked outside to shut my screen door which was sort of stuck on something and suddenly saw this bright yellowish orange object rounded at the front that was huge and looked like a shooting star but way too slow moving and way too low on the horizon and also way too big and yellowy orange colored. I watched it going at a pretty shallow angle for a good 3 seconds or so, sort of just confused by what I just saw and then I kind of felt a sudden onset of panic thinking it was really a meteorite that was going to hit something nearby and explode, but I heard nothing and saw no big flashes of light so presumed it didn't hit anything. I then went back inside and posted a note about it on FB and called my mother and brother so know I must have saw it sometime right around 8:07-8:10 PM. |
