|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Duration | 5s |

| Remarks | "Smoke" seemed a bright gray, and persisted(perhaps as and afterimage on my eyes) for the duration of the event, several smaller trails seemed to shoot off as what appeared to be fragments "fell" off the main "body" |

| Observation | Unknown |
| Remarks | - |
| Fragmentation | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | There was a bright green flash, but it did not seem "terminal"(this is an assumption that a terminal flash would be one where the "body" disintegrated-that did not happen) the "body" had "emitted" several "fragments" before the flash, and several more after. The "body" and smoke trail continued beyond my visible horizon. |
