Reports Report 2027p (Event 2027-2020)

Observer
Name Carrie F
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I knew immediately that what I was seeing was unusual. The bright light followed by a long tail was moving too fast, low and silently to be a plane. And I’ve never seen a firework move horizontally and then fizzle out with no sound. My heart was racing afterward and I immediately called my husband to share the experience.
