Observer
Name Janet G
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was sitting in the dark in my enclosed lania on the 10th floor of my Venice Fl. apartment. I was talking on the phone at about 7:45 pm. when I saw a bright light in the sky over the Gulf of Mexico. It was a bright light, too fast for a plane and no noise. It came from the north, headed south and hugged the coast. It did not change altitude.It did seem to have a tail.it only lasted about 20 seconds.
