| Name | Cherish B |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | This appeared to be headed more toward me than across the sky. The light was very large/wide and was more of a ripple than having a trail of light. I feel very fortunate to have experienced two of these, within one night, only hours apart. |
