| Name | Aaron S |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was able to view the fireball for a full 4-5 seconds before it disappeared from view behind tress. The glowing part was large/fat, fairly bright and had a somewhat shorter tail than some of the shooting stars I've seen. It traveled very fast, yet somehow seemed slow, like it was floating through the sky, burning. |
