| Name | Denise D |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was incredibly exciting! Very bright, and I honestly had no idea that one could see such a thing in broad daylight. Unfortunately, no one else in my group saw it—they were facing another direction. I’ve been searching the Internet to see if anyone else has reported the same phenomenon. |
