| Name | Don B |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Never seen anything like it. Thought it was some kine fireworks, except fireworks don't start in the sky and travel down. I wanted to think meteor, but it was very bright green with an orange fire tail. Did not know meteors could be green until I searched for green fireball. When I saw the image results, I knew it was a meteor. Ill be looking up more often from now on! |
