| Name | JULIE W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | At first I thought it was a shooting star, but it lasted longer and got bigger and changed from white to light green before I lost sight of it behind a house. It was like nothing I have ever seen, so I looked it up on the internet and found a picture of what I saw-it was a picture of a meteor. |
