| Name | LeAnne G |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It wasn\'t super loud and I watched it for maybe about 5 to 8 seconds. I know it wasn\'t a shooting star, I have seen shooting stars. It appeared lower then the stars to me. I don\'t know much about sky gazing but this was something different. For me this was awesome and scary all at the same time. I am not usually outside at that time in the morning but my dog wouldn\'t come in so I went out to see if something was wrong. |

| Remarks | I was standing on the side of my house facing my backyard and I heard a (almost like) a low sizzle, I turned around and saw it clear as day moving kind of slowly heading south, it looked like a fire ball with a long tail. I turned back around until it hit me what I just saw and I went to the front yard but it was gone by then. |
