| Name | Daniel N |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I would ask that someone did contact me to make sure the information I gave is correct. Those models are not simple to fill out for someone who doesn't know a whole lot on the topic (But I am extremely interested). I'm not sure if I entered it correctly. Also I have a few questions. I had never seen anything like that in my life. It was amazing. |

| Remarks | There was a big, fast, low flying bright light that lit the sky up. Following that light it started to begin to change colors to that of a burning flame, the red, orange, yellow. Following after that I began to see what looked like smoke and in that smoke it looked like dark black spots about the size of marbles in the smoke trail. All within no more than 2 seconds. But I didn't see it approaching me. I seen it directly straight above my head. It came from behind me so I don't know how long it was actually visible. From the time I seen it directly above me it was gone and not visible in less than 2 seconds. |
