| Name | Ralph S |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | Lasted 2.5 seconds. I was counting this time. Just happened to look up in this direction at that moment or I would not have seen it. In 60 years, I have never seen one of these, until this year. Last month I saw one , this was similar only looked much closer, bigger, and brighter. The bright orange middle left a kind of tail as it headed towards the ground. It was amazing. Didn’t have time for picture |
