| Name | Ruby L |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This was truly incredible I couldn’t believe my eyes, luckily my sister was with me and confirmed what I saw! An red/orange glowing ball, larger than a star with an orange tail appeared and flashed across the sky for no longer than 4 seconds I think. I have no exact data on this sighting but I have done the best I can to give accurate and helpful info. Please email me footage if your cameras caught any! Thank you. |
