| Name | Beth B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Had long and wide, very bright tail. Was above the sun as we were heading East, but it appeared to be heading south west from my location. It was so bright that even with the sun coming up in all it's brightness, you could still see it! Within 7-8 minutes later on my way back home, saw a third one that was like a bright star, but could not see a tail on that one. At first glimpse of the first one, thought maybe it was jet because there almost appeared to be something in front of the tail, but tail was so wide and it was more of a very bright golden yellow that next thought was comet. |
