| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Felthauser J |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was in a moving car (flat road, no hill) with 2 passengers when it came into view ... at first looking like a large firework, but realized it was a fireball or meteor ... light green with a sparkly tail. It was low enough in the sky that the passenger in the back seat also saw the object. The person in the back seat described seeing a smoke tail, but I saw a sparkly tail. It went behind a building and by the time we got past the building it had completely disappeared. |
