| Name | Ashley G |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving and saw it over the town of Mount Holly, NC. It stayed long enough to where if somebody was driving with me, I could have pointed to it and said, “do you see that? Look at how bright it is!” and they would have been able to respond to seeing it. It was bright, BIG and beautiful. Biggest ine I’ve seen! Bigger than a typical “shooting star”. |
