| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | What we saw had a brilliant white round body with a brilliant orange flame about twice the length of the diameter of the body, It had no noise at all and didnt fade at all and was very clear. It wasnt travelling all that fast, I\'d say about 300 miles per hour and in my estimation was about 200/300 feet above the ground travelling in a straight line. After it went from view because of the hills we heard about 2 minutes later a loud thump coming from the northern direction. My partner witnessed it and my family all heard the thump. |
