| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Robert B |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | This phenomenon lasted long enough, at least six to seven seconds, for me to alert my wife and son to sit toward that they may see out the eight foot bay window . This event took place over the south east sky of the Atlantic Ocean . In my twenty years as a year round resident , privy to an abundance of sightings over tthe years , this event was startling in its vibrancy, length of travel, and observability. I would be extremely curious as to others who observed and or reported this event. |
