| Name | Tiffany Y |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I did 4 years in high school and was president of the school astronomy club. It's been a while, but we used to go out for observation regularly as a group. I've never seen one that big and bright before, but I'm very confident in what I saw. Had the magnesium and maybe sodium coloring. |
