Reports Report 2172bo (Event 2172-2026)

Observer
Name Jennifer M
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks Incredible! The coolest thing I’ve seen. It was super fast but sustained for a few seconds. I thought it was a plane until it registered that planes aren’t that fast or that bright. My daughter who wasn’t wearing her glasses even saw it. It was long enough to visually lock in and watch it before it just vanished
