Observer
Name Mark N
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It only lasted a 2-3 seconds appeared as a blueish green ball leading with a white tapered tail that just seemed to burn out quickly. Coming over head and headed at a slight angle down in front of me. I checked my compass on my phone and it showed I was facing 240 when it disappeared. Went too fast to get photos or video! Awesome to see!!
