| Name | John B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This object was majestic, a 4 cornered square traveling right to left as I faced south, nearly level. 4 perfectly aligned and synchronous travelers for a full 12 seconds with Smokey contrail. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. Disappeared to the east and contrail remained for a few moments. Emerald green initially, then blue to yellow shift as it passed. |
