Reports Report 165f (Event 165-2011)

Observer
Name Allison
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It had a VERY wide bright tail - first thing I noticed just over the woods - which I followed forward to the leading object. The tail was white - very long, wide, and relatively bright. It was in the sky long enough for me to get a good look before it sped off.
