Name Oytun T
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I didn’t see anything in the sky. I was in a room with 2 big skylights and the room became very bright with light. I thought it was either lightning but there was no clouds or some electrical explosion nearby. When I researched chatgpt, it mentioned fireballs and i realized it was a fireball.
