| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It started off somewhat far in the sky in front of me as I was driving, and then came across the drivers side of the car extremely close and then just disappeared. The colours were a super bright green and blue front and then bright orange tail on the back end, but it was one smooth consistent object. It was extremely big/wide and quite long, and so vibrant in color. Its shape seemed as though it was an object on fire, but those glowing greens and blue in front of the orange looked similar to the aurora’s flow. It was so large in size and close to the trees and car and then just vanished before I could get a photo or video of it. The image of what I saw is so clear in my head! |
