| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | My daughter and I saw it while driving south on 29. I noticed it at about 11:00 in my view. And disappeared out of myfield of view at about 2:00. It was bright and moved very fast, so I determined it wasn't an aircraft. The trail in the sky, after the object past, May or may not have been from the object. |
