Heather E
Experience Level
2/5
Remarks
Happened to be looking in the sky at the stars and watched it from the moment it started to the moment it went behind the mountains at horizon level. Started white like a shooting star and it grew thicker and brighter, when it turned green and fell more straight down to the earth.
