Observer
Name J G
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I don’t know if this was the exact location. We were traveling in the highway from Charlotte, NC to Morganton, NC. On the right side of the car just above the tree line a huge burst of light flew through, rounded at the front, and then sort of faded, like it died off? My mother in law and I both saw it and were baffled.
