Observer
Name Denise K
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was driving southwest on the highway and it caught my attention in the right side of the windshield. It was bright until almost the end when it just went dark and disappeared just above the horizon. I would compare it to a firework except it didn’t explode. Very steady speed and bright. Bigger than Venus which was in the eastern sky.
