Observer
Name Katherine B
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was concerned if there were any crash reported. I didn't see any explosion or any reaction. This was seen from inside my house. The initial figure of my location is actually on other side of lake. I couldn't figure how to correct it, however it is still same direction of my sighting. It was so cool!
