| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | So much time has passed now so I’m sorry if the info is wrong. Nobody believes me when I say that I saw a beautiful explosion in the night sky. I got tired of that and did some research tonight. Sure enough, there was a meteor spotted in AR on the same date and time. I just wanted to submit this to show that I’m not crazy and also because this meteor was absolutely beautiful and came to me at a time in my life where it meant something very important to me. I’m glad that I now have an explanation for what I thought was like, an alien or something haha. |
