Reports Report 7950fp (Event 7950-2022)

Observer
Name Caitlin K
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It started out as a white, sparkling streak and then it suddenly changed into a colorful streak. It almost looked like when you put copper into a fire. It looked similar to a firework only travelling almost horizontally. My husband and I had never seen anything like it in our lives. The location on this form is approximate, but the time is accurate within approximately a minute. I know this because I placed a phone call to my husband who was traveling in the vehicle behind me to see if he saw it too. We were traveling down North Searsport road between Loggin Road and Mt. Ephraim Road when we saw it (probably a little closer to the Mt. Ephraim end).
