Reports Report 667anv (Event 667-2013)

Observer
Name Kathryn M
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I had just come chaperoning a dance with lots of flashing lights so I wondered if I was experiencing some sort of Doppler effect with my eyes like the astronauts. My heading was just an estimate as the road could have been curving. It was pretty low in the sky and I could see the moon above and Orion's belt just to the right.
