| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It looked like a firework except for the downward angle. I thought it was very close to my neighborhood because it looked pretty big. I thought it would land close by, but I never heard an impact. Now that I know it was seen from multiple states, I have to assume it was very large. |
