Reports Report 1038a (Event 1038-2014)

| Name | Madelyn T |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I'm not sure if I described it correctly from the questions, but I was looking due east from the roof of my 2nd story apartment & saw it in my peripheral vision south, at about 20 degrees. It seemed fairly big & burned up just above some buildings. About a month ago I thought I saw one in my peripheral vision to the north from the same spot, but not nearly as big. Of course I have no idea how big it really was because of relative perspective. But the one last night (April 29) was set against buildings in the background instead of the sky & I have to say that it seemed much larger than a car, possibly the size of a small airplane. |
