| Experience Level | 5/5 |
| Remarks | I SAW A REMARKABLE OBJECT, WE ARE ASTRONOMERS AND OFTEN VIEW THE NIGHT SKIES, THIS WAS AN UNUSUAL EVENT. IT LOOKED LIKE A ROUND OBJECT AS BIG AS A FULL MOON WITH GREEN AND YELOW AND BLUISH COLOR. IT DID NOT HIT ANYWHERE AND LIT UP THE WHOLE SKY. TO ME IT WAS NOT A METEORITE, I KNOW WHAT A METEORITE LOOKS LIKE. WE ARE VIEWERS OF THE PERSEID METEOR SHOWER AND THIS WAS NOTHING LIKE A METEOR. IT ALSO LOOKED LIKE IT WAS SWIRLING. |
