Reports Report 2169af (Event 2169-2017)

Observer
Name Marie G
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks This went across the sky a little slower than an airplane would fly. I thought it was a plane on fire at first due to the bright orange color. It did not seem to descend, but appeared to "veer" slightly away from us (husband and mom came out to see it, too) then seemed to simply "burn out."
