| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Peter H |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This event happened while I was driving and my initial observation was while I was on the phone so there was a delay in video capture, and the object appeared to have been in the atmosphere for a longer duration than I can predict, prior to my video. The object was larger and brighter in person than what was recorded on video. |
