| Remarks | Very wide, greenish trail that spread out in both directions perpendicular to the direction of travel of the object (from my perspective up and down), very similar in appearance to a wake in water from a boat. The trail lasted for several moments in the sky even after the object went out of my field of vision due to the trees on the street. |
