| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | I have seen hundreds of meteors and this was not a meteor. There was a pulsing glow all around it. it was still daylight so I am not sure of the exact brightness, but it was extremely bright. The time of 9.03 PM is approximate. it may have been a few minutes later, I didn't look at my phone because i was on a call. |
