Reports Report 523a (Event 523-2006)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Douglas P |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Was driving with window open, so ability to hear anything was impaired, but this bright luminous green fireball disappeared behind the low hills a few miles in the distance. Was expecting an impact explosion, but there was none, and nothing in the news (which was surprising). I seem to recall a tail, but it did not persist very long. |
