| Name | Nico M |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I am completely certain this was not a plane: it had a bright, bulbous body and was moving far too fast. (In fact, I had seen a shooting star only 20 minutes earlier.) The trajectory was at such a downward angle that I thought something was crashing for a split-second; then, I realized it was outside the atmosphere but watched intently. This was amazing!! I hope to learn what it was, exactly. |
