Experience Level | 1/5 |
Remarks | Not sure if I answered the questions correctly but we saw it go across the sky from our deck when we were facing West, towards Santa Cruz, and it appeared to come from the North East, come across the sky and look to descend South, towards the Central Coast. We then heard a low boom once it descended. It was an orange ball that was very visible |
