| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Sarah G |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving, so I wasn't able to look as closely as I would have liked, but feel certain of what I saw because my friend was driving the car in front of me and also saw it. We both described it as a huge, light green shooting star, which is what I googled and found out about fireball meteors. |
