Reports Report 228b (Event 228-2012)

Observer
Name Mike T
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Most impressive comet like object I have ever seen in the sky. It was huge and I expected to hear a crashing sound and see flames on its impact. Not sure why I woke up at that time and looked out the window, but I\'m glad I did. I expected to hear a report on the news or find out it was a plane going to CVG airport in flames. I did a search online and found this website. Hope someone else saw it.
