Experience Level
3/5
Remarks
It was amazing and appeared to disappear behind the hills near my home. It appeared close enough as a low-flying airplane or helicopter. But traveled with no sound. Blue streaks of heat or fire appeared to trail behind it and would change from blue to yellow red to blue again
