| Name | Karen M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving south through the countryside, miles away from any towns. This first came into view from the top of my windshield and then gave the illusion it crashed into the ground, it just disappeared. At first I thought someone was setting off fireworks nearby, but there was no noise and no other "lights in the sky" and what was falling was too large to be fallout from fireworks. Do you think this is what I saw? |
