| Name | Christopher P |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was sitting in my car, facing east, getting ready to go into work. I looked up and saw a bright white light racing across the sky and disappear behind some trees. It was bright enough to be highly visible despite all the lights in the parking lot. I had my windows down, but heard no sound. |
