| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Bright white, brighter than the full moon, orange sparks trailing behind, was so close I thought it was going to crash but took eyes off it for 1 second as trying to stop car to watch, when looked again it had disappeared into thin air. I could see the sparks coming off it so clearly. Most amazing thing I've ever seen. It was over the field I was driving past. |
