Reports Report 23ql (Event 23-2023)

Observer
Name Lisa C
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I looked up because something caught my eye. It was so bright but not much bigger and brighter than aeroplanes which pass us by because we are near the flight path. I looked up flight radar to see if there were any helicopters in the vicinity but nothing. I took a screenshot of the time on my phone because it was so unusually bright I thought something very unusual had happened.
