Observer
Name Eric T
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I seen it at around 930pm at my house and my wife seen it at like 6pm like 11 miles away. I ment to tell her last night when she got home but I forgot and then this morning she said "You won't believe what I saw" and as she was describing it I was like "was it green?" And she said yes. She described it exactly but I found it odd that hers was at a different time and daylight. I wanted to think I seen a ufo but I figured it was shooting star. Thanks
