| Name | Melissa C |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was very bright and sudden. I noticed an airplane’s blinking light before it suddenly appeared. I did not have glasses on so I could not see the majority of stars tonight. Although it’s a pretty clear night, there is no mistaking this. Looking past my husband while we were sitting in the hot tub. It was very large, easily, the size of a fist or a softball, and disappeared into the tree line in the distance. |
