Reports Report 8570a (Event 8570-2025)

Observer
Name Jon Vidar V
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I believe I saw it late and it was probably longer than the 5 seconds I witnessed it for. I had to re-focus on the road so I lost sight of the object soon after the light went out. (saw it at least for 2 seconds looking very dim)
