| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This was the hugest comet I have ever seen in my life. It was not just a shooting star. It was deep neon green (like green lantern superhero) and it was massive. If a normal shooting star is a cheerio, this was a donut in size comparison. It was super fast and pretty much covered 2/3rd of the sky that was visible to me in distance in a matter of seconds. It was so close I waited for a noise or to see an explosion thinking it crashed into earth. I immediately looked I kk e tk seenjf any one else saw it and no one did. It was freaky. I watched the aurora borialis sky the night before, this was nothing even in the realm of that. This feels supernatural. |
