Name | Branee M |
Experience Level | 1/5 |
Remarks | To me it was a blinking flash, it was not a steady flash of light, it flashed maybe every 20-30 seconds. The first 2-3 flashes of it I seen were very bright, and as it moved off in the distance the flashing faded. It moved very slowly though, I felt as if I seen it in the same spot for 2 flashes each. And to me it was a white light, with no tail. I could see planes flying in the sky and it was definitely not a plane, and it's distance was well out beyond a planes fly zone. It seemed closer when I first seen it and then it traveled up higher as it went off into the distance. I was not aware of what I had seen at first and was very confused until having a post about the fire ball shared to me on Facebook in regards to a post I made of what I had seen. Now I'm certain this is what I had seen! |
