Name Michelle G
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was facing east, the light appeared in front of me coming south and going north. It seemed to fly way lower than a plane. It flew in a straight line for about 3-4 seconds followed by a bright blue hue and some orange/red sparkling from the ball itself. This was Not a shooting star or debris from aircrafts.
