Observer
Name David S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I stare at the sky alot but I've never seen anything like that before. It was so close. It was there then gone again. It was really cool though. I hope I got the times and stuff right. All I remember I was looking southeast and it was early in the morning and it was heading east of my position.
