| Name | Deborah B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving on mass turnpike west bound towards Palmer mass, saw this high in the sky to my left , big bright light that shot at an angle down towards the ground , there was large amount of trees on the highway, so I only saw it till it got out of my visual field, so I don’t know if it burned out or what happened. This was so much bigger than small meteor showers that go left to right in the sky. |
