Reports Report 3032i (Event 3032-2023)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Bryan G |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Started as a bright white light, very high altitude moving quickly towards the south eastern horizon - no terminal flash but did get brighter over the 2 seconds it was in the sky - multiple large airports are in there area, which is why it quickly caught my eye, object was moving very fast and not in the direction or common paths of the flights from that area. Was driving on route 78 in NJ. Object was bright white. Very confident this was a meteor, debris from outside the atmosphere, or an unnatural event. Should have a signifcant amount of matching witness accounts as this is a heavily populated area within 10m miles of NYC. |
