Observer
Name Victoria V
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks This fireball looked entirely different than one I saw over Nebraska a few years back. This one looked way higher up & slower & yellowish gold. The one I saw while driving through Nebraska at night was unbelievable, it came out of nowhere & was huge & a beautiful blue green with a tail that came out of the big circle head part....both were amazing though!
