| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Caroline K |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Sky was still light so this object seemed astoundingly bright -also seemed to be in very close proximity. Trajectory and appearance were NOT that of a firework, but it was much closer looking than I would have imagined a “shooting star.” |
