| Name | Tressa B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I couldn't believe how bright it was and that it last so long, normally a shooting star is quick, but this lasted a few seconds. I thought it was a plane at first because it was bright, but then I saw the trail and it went into a couple (two i think) pieces. I wish someone else had been in the car with me! |
