Reports Report 987uj (Event 987-2024)

Observer
Name Kelli F
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I could be 10-15 min off for the exact time. This was definitely different looking than a plane or fireworks. It did only last for a few seconds, it moved horizontally & had a trail, & it seemed so close to us. We never saw anything like it! That's why I researched it & then found this article.
