| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | David S |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Basically, I saw a light falling in what looked like a straight down trajectory. It flared up, and disappeared. It resembled a firework effect, and I thought that that was what I had seen, until I saw news reports and video that matched what I saw. |
