| Name | Sigrid B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It was a much larger object than anything I had ever seen before as a meteor or shooting star (about 5-6x brightest venus). I was standing by the closed north-facing window, looking at the morning sky, when this object suddenly entered my field of vision. It was very bright, glowing irregularly in light yellow and little blue, and had a reddish tail. It seemed really near / low. The phenomenon disappeared in the middle of my field of view. Only then did I realize what I had just seen. I then opened the window, but I could not hear any unusual sounds. |
