| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | Last question, better answer. I teach celestial navigation professionally, and my academic background is in astronomy, but I don't have a specific interest in meteorites. This object appeared very similar to a bright green pyrotechnic flare. I actually at first thought it might have been a firework nearby, but there were no people or boats to have set one off there, and there was no sound, and no other incidents. |
