| Name | Kim B |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I have seen shooting stars and many lift-offs from Cape Canaveral. But this was awesome and totally different. I was driving down the road at only 35mph when out of the top left of the windshield sight came a bright ball of light, huge. It moved downward, diagonally. It looked like it would have landed behind Winter Springs High School. I've seen meteor showers and this was not that. What was it? |
