| Name | Kate |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have not had time to report this until now. I was searching on the internet in the hopes that an observatory in or near Wyoming had also located it, but to no avail. It could have made noise, but have no idea as I was looking through the north picture window inside the house as I prepared to go outside for the day. I have never seen anything like it simply because it lit up everything as if it were day time, and appeared very close in proximity. |
