Reports Report 9421aj (Event 9421-2021)

Observer
Name Ashley R
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks It caught my attention because it was moving very quickly so while my first observation was that it could be a plane, it wasn't a blinking light typical of planes and was moving much faster. It also disappeared after a few seconds so I figured it could be a meteor but I feel it could very well have been a fireball.
