Observer
Name Robyn J
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It was incredible. My husband and I were going to bed and our house is ocean front. It lit up the whole sky and our living room and bedroom. A plane was travelling almost right through its path. We could still see the trail long after it burnt out.
