Observer
Name Leila S
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was driving, when the exceptionally bright blue ball of light, caught my eye. It was something I've never seen before so slowed down to try and get a better look at what it was. It flew by so quickly, I barely had time to comprehend what I was seeing. Because I was moving slowly in my car and also trying to observe what I was seeing, the information on the direction I said it traveled, may be somewhat inaccurate. But I still feel it's pretty close to where I saw it. If anything, the date and time, give or take 2-3 minutes, is accurate. I just feel blessed to have witnessed such a beautiful, natural occurrence.
