Observer
Name Hilarie H
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I have seen falling stars many times. This initially looked like a falling star (white) travelling downwards, fast, except towards the end it got wider and turned neon green for a couple seconds and then it disappeared before it should have been out of sight. It was spectacular! Never saw anything like it
