| Remarks | We saw a lot last night, but nothing could ever top what we saw we both spotted it and had enough time to think we were going to say “did you see that” but it kept happening, it started high up, not directly above, a glow, that seemingly emerged, and then a prompt thrust to the west, a very long, bright white trail and what looks like burning on either side! I can’t believe we saw something like that. It was close! |
