Observer
Name Christina Z
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Shortly before seeing this,a smaller orange ball looked like it punctured the atmosphere. The atmosphere area did this color change while it spread out then soon evaporated.(almost like it was punctured and rippled) The small orange ball continued across the sky in a southern direction. The larger orange ball I’m reporting then caught my attention but disappeared after about 3-5 seconds
