| Name | katrina c |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It moved from higher in sky to lower in the sky, in a swooping path, from right to left . It was brighter white for the most part, with the colors showing up at the "front" of the meteor ball" The colors were purple and green. It lasted about 3 seconds - it seemed very long. It had a "wide" white tail behind it, but it did not linger afterwards. It was NOT the skinny, white type of tail you see behind the usual "shooting star" which you "wish upon." Hope this helps! |
