| Name | Elizabeth T |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I thought it was a shooting star, but had never seen anything so bright or last so long, so as it moved I wondered if it was indeed something other than a star. I kept waiting to hear something if it hit the ground. It was an astonishing thing to see. |
