Reports Report 667ef (Event 667-2013)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | John C |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | This object seemed very close. It was extremely large, bigger than any meteor or shooting star I have ever seen. The trail was large and very, very bright green. I initially took it for fireworks, but it took a large path across the horizon before disappearing behind a tree line. It seemed almost horizontal in its trajectory. |
