| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving, so first seen as it came into view near top of windshield. The object didn't appear to be a point of light, but was sort of a small rectangle with a minimum tail. Disappeared rather low in the horizon and rather abruptly - no lingering glowing. |
