Observer
Name Victoria S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I've never seen anything like that before in my life. I thought it might even be electrical because of how bright it was, but it was too high in the sky for that. Not touching the ground or wires visibly beyond that in the actual atmosphere. I was stunned and looked up how to report the phenomenon immediately.
