| Name | Katrina C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | My husband was driving back from Salem, Massachusettes heading south on Interstate hwy 95. We had just crossed into Rhode Island when right in front of us a thing appeared in the middle of the sky falling freely and fast, with a small green\white glow trailing from behind. It lasted long enough for me to point it put to my husband anf also our children was able to view this fireball. It was beautiful and felt close enough for you to reach out and just pick it out of the sky until the fireball went out. |
