| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I thought it was a plane with red lights, which didn't make sense, and it was moving very fast. Too fast across the sky to be a plane. It was very bright red and began to dim until the color changed from red to yellow before it faded. I think it was upper atmosphere and very large. My guess is that it grazed the atmosphere and survived the friction, then passed out of the atmosphere. |
