| Observer | |

| Name | James C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | What was surprising about this, is the attitude, seemed to be only 500-600 ft in the sky. The clearest i've ever seen! I was walking my dog at the time and after it passed I asked my dog "did you see that?". The object appeared to go right over my house, but i'm sure it was probably 1+ miles away. |
