| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Denise G |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It was vivid in color. It seemed as if there was a solid dark mass at the center. The blue reminded me of gas from a stove. Three people in my car saw this event. I have seen shooting stars, but never this close nor this colorful. |
