Observer
Name Melanie W
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks What we saw was super cool, but super quick! At first we saw a bright light falling and thought it was a shooting star, but it was brighter than any shooting star I’ve ever seen, and the color left behind was a rainbow. It moved in a straight downward vertical position.
