Reports Report 2929bd (Event 2929-2013)

Observer
Name Jerry B
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I have never seen anything like it, it lit the dark sky up like there was a distant lightning storm going on. I immediately looked the to the portion of the sky where it was most illuminated and then it came, a bright thick path of white light of a falling object (with blues and other colors) with what I describe as halo or enlarged areas of the downward path. It was quite thick in our view. We were driving, so I was unfortunately unable to gauge the sound.
