| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving south on I-75 heading into Dayton, Ohio. Not exactly sure where I was, but a little north of the city. All of a sudden above the city I saw this pretty bright "something" go across the sky. I assumed I saw a bright shooting star. I of course could hear no noise or watch very closely as I was alone and driving. But it was pretty cool! It went from right to left in my vision. Definitely brighter than other shooting stars I had ever seen (not many!). From my viewpoint, it was not real high in the sky. I hope this helps! |
