Reports Report 977p (Event 977-2016)

Observer
Name Katy G
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was a passenger in a car on I70 West bound. The reason why I did not see it for longer is strictly because the trajectory fell behind the mountains. It was very bright, and it was not like any other thing I have ever seen. Amazing sight!
