| Name | Megan B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | My son and I were in the car when I told him to look up at the sky, we thought it was a shooting star at first but it was too large and too slow, it was a pretty cool sight to see when you live in the suburbs surrounded by trees all of the time. |
