| Name | Todd B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving towards Downtown Milwaukee and it just appeared in an instant. It was bright and very fast. However, it was like a very slow shooting star, but bigger. No way it was a plane or aircraft. It lasted a few quick seconds and then gone. Definitely a new experience for me. I drive all over the country, and have never seen that. I live in Michigan, and I am always looking up. Never saw that. I have seen shooting stats that last a second or two. It's possible it was a larger, brighter, and longer lasting shooting star. I'm no expert. |
