Observer
Name Chris C
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Rapidly came into view from 1:30 on a clock and rapidly exited at 8 on a clock, 2-3 seconds later. Closest I've ever seen. Planes have looked much higher up than this. Was bright with a bluish white tinge like what magnesium in science lab looked like, ablaze.
