Reports Report 3712a (Event 3712-2026)

Observer
Name Eric N
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Because of the green color I thought it may be human space junk. It also changed color from white, light blue to green. It also didn’t seem to be traveling very fast, because of the angle and trajectory. I have seen many falling stars and it seemed different, maybe because I have never seen those colors from a meteor. I’ve also witnessed other unknown objects recently from the same location and approximately the same time.
