Observer
Name
Shannon T
Experience Level
2/5
Remarks
It looked like a large bright green shooting star. But much closer than a meteor you see way up high. If a normal star was the size of a golf ball this was the size of a basketball in comparison. It only lasted a couple of seconds and then extinguished.
