| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Bright enough to catch my attention, but only because I looked in the right direction at the right time. As brilliant as a fireworks display, but just one quick, straight, steep, sparkly slash of green drawn at angle of upper left to lower right in distant mid to low sky. The whole thing went dark after reaching what seemed to be end of downstroke. I did not have vantage point to see it hit the ground - I was walking across grocery store parking lot to load bags into car. General location is a well-lit main drag, so I wondered if it made a hissing sound, or was just white noise of passing traffic. Took me off-guard! Stunning! |
