| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Madison T |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Although I saw it at night, I was driving in a well lit area so I am unsure of it's actual brightness or if any terminal flashes occurred. It closely resembled an airplane flying nearby at first before glowing greenish-blue and developing it's tail. |
