Name | Natalie R |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | I'm an educator and love looking at the night sky out of my window at night. I'm 48 and this is the first time I've seen anything like this. I'm literally Googling it to make sure it wasn't a plane crash. My car radio was blasting but I immediately called my teenager and they said they heard a boom. I'm hoping someone has a video and it will be reported by local news and/or confirmed by others in your website. |
