Observer
Name Brian E
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Was passenger driving north on Cockshutt road when I spotted a fast moving white object moving left to right (west to east). Called out to the 3 other occupants who all observed it for a few seconds before it ended in the bright green flash. It looked to be over the 6 Nations Reserve when it ended based on our position. Brightest and longest one I've even observed.
