| Name | Rachel B |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I think it was the comet's reflection I saw where I sat, in our SW-facing window--we have big windows all around. My husband was downstairs (basement) and he said he saw it to the east. I wondered if it was green fireworks, a rocket. I was looking at it (or the reflection of it) head-on and it made an arc and was gone. It seemed very low in the sky--low enough for me to think it was someone at home setting off fireworks. |
