| Name | Cammie K |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was remarkable, we were on 2nd floor balcony, it didn't fall, it was eye level above cornfield going south but traveling horizontal. Was very bright, red, yellow had tail. I swear, it was only 50ft above corn field and seemed to appear out of nowhere. It startled my son who exclaimed "what the f@%& was that. It was scary, it was so low! Only lasted a second. Weirdest thing I have ever seen. |
