| Name | Alex K |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I had earbuds in, so if there was any noise, I wouldn't have heard it. I actually first noticed when I was looking at the ground, the ground lit up (at 5:43 it's dark in West Michigan). I quickly looked up and saw the bright light between clouds. It moved east behind the clouds, so I couldn't see if there was any fragmentation. |
