| Name | Bill B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving on I35. Saw it out of the corner of my eye, then looked directly at it. It was very large and bright, but pretty far away. Visibility was excellent and I could see city lights miles away. The light moved down and from right to left, it got brighter and brighter, then burnt out quickly. I thought it had a slight greenish tint to it, but it was difficult to be certain. |
