| Name | Anthony S |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I have a Great wide open sky view where I live, and l watch the sky quite a bit while relaxing on summer evenings. I have never seen anything like that in my life before, and to my knowledge no ine else I knew had seen it that evening. I have never forgotten it. I have always wondered if it was a natural event, or a man made event. |
