Observer
Name Sandra C
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It’s was very large and bright !!! . It came from behind me and passed over me on the highway moderately seaming to heading down towards earth but not at a sharp angle . The trail was long and bright and it all just seamed or burn up in a few seconds. It seemed so close to earth that it could have ended up in farming fields out that way.
