Name David J
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks The object looked like it was moving almost horizontal with a slight downward trajectory. It is a clear night with no clouds. The object was very bright and was gone very quickly but it didn’t move out of view, it looked like it just fizzled out. It looked like a fireball flying thru the sky with no tail behind it.
