Name | Glenn W |
Experience Level | 4/5 |
Remarks | Something burning in the atmosphere moving due west to due east. It was only one color, orange and didn't change. It was high in the atmosphere and was moving fast (faster than a plane, satellite, or anything else would). It was burning like this without decreasing in altitude for at least 5-10 seconds before disappearing. |
