Observer
Name Serena K
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I could not get the map to do right. I was driving on 840 about half a mile before reaching exit 70 which is Stewart’s Ferry Pike . It was coming from my right going left. Traveling almost horizontally. The front was shaped like a ball with a tail trailing. It looked like it was on fire, bright orange in the middle surrounded by bright yellow. Was not a shooting star. I have never seen anything like it before.
