Observer
Name Tina S
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Was on a party cruise, happened to look up, saw a bright glowing green ball and asked if anyone else saw it. I was the only one, everyone said it was a flare since we were in the ocean. I said it looked more like a meteor or somethjng. I didn't think more of it until I saw a news article. Pretty cool.
