Observer
Name L F
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It was at a precipitous angle, low in the sky, coming from right to left as we sat in front of our living room window. Our room faces east. We thought it was a plane or helicopter in trouble when we saw it and ran outside, expecting to see something burning in the distance. Never saw something like that before.
