Reports Report 2908ot (Event 2908-2014)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Scott C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I do not know how far away it was, but it appeared to be a flare or fireworks that was approximate close to my driving location of possible a mile. My first thought was someone shot off a flare. I have seen many fireballs, but that was my first bright green one I had ever seen. And I even had seen the extremely rare red aurora's for Indiana a few years ago. |
