Experience Level 1/5
Remarks This was so very bright and close to me it appeared to be a firework in a house right off the streets backyard! I was driving apprx. 35 mph in my jeep wrangler with the top off so I had a full view of the sky on the country road I was on . Incredible! So bright white with a green flash at the end /tip of it. Seriously the most amazing thing I've ever seen!
