| Name | Moira-Anne S |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | First saw the bright light, when the trail appeared I realized it was something amazing. The color changed to green from very bright yellow, that's why I assumed it was a low flying aircraft approaching. when I saw it got a trail all four of us were watching in awe. At the end there was like a last flash and it went dark. The color changed from very bright sunlike to green and I think we even saw smoke at the end. It was unreal. |
