| Name | Sonja T |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It was very low, not typically as high as a shooting star. It also had such a long train that it seemed unreal. It was glowing? And long, fading so slowly behind it! It was witnessed by 3 people 1 of them being me. It lasted a whole 15/20 seconds I couldn’t see it didn’t stop it just kept going. You could see it still going in the distance |
