| Remarks | It was slightly foggy out; so i was totally sure it was a falling star or whatever. the light against the hazy night sky was something i’ve never seen before. literally it went by so fast; no sound, i was driving also, for context. usually i’m not sure if it’s actually a falling star 💫 if i see them, but tonight i was absolutely positive. either that or something crashed cause i followed it all the way down for those 3 seconds in the sky. super cool. 😎 i could see the light in the background against the fog so that’s how i know it was a falling star |
