| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was big, maybe about half the size of the sun. It just appeared in the southern sky. Went down 45 degrees from right to left, lasted 3 to 4 seconds and had no tail. It went behind 90 foot tall oak trees and i6could see it through the trees until the horizon. I expected an explosion but nothing. |
