| Name | Jessica H |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was very quick, very bright, very sudden and incredible!! I wouldn’t have seen it if I hadn’t looked up at that exact moment. I thought it was a shooting star but it was big and much closer than any star in comparison afterwards it couldn’t possibly have been a star. It was much bigger than any of the aeroplanes. It was really close and really big. |
