| Name | Linda P |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Myself and my daughter saw this extra large bright white ball shooting on a downward trajectory through the sky. Unfortunately we were inside so only caught it briefly as it came into view through the large skylight in my lounge which at my estimation we would be looking at it in a WNW direction. As it was seen through the large skylight, my description of where I first /last saw it come into view is relevant only to the size window. It was brighter and larger than any shooting star that I've ever seen and seemed close enough that I thought it may land/hit somewhere. I didn't see any trail/tail and heard nothing but we were as I mentioned, indoors and we did have the telly on at the time. I would truly love to know what it was, if you could possibly let me know please. Hope this is of some help. 💥 |
