| Remarks | We were watching a drive in movie and it appeared to the right of the screen just as the major monster appeared for the first time. Also, in other news, it was out over the ocean to the west of UCSB, it is likely a security cam at UCSB or the SBA airport facing east caught it as it was pretty far above the horizon at first. |
