| Name | Michael T |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was facing the south, it appeared very clearly in the sky right in front of me for a short distance, but slow moving that I observed it for a good 3 seconds or so. It was a greenish colored fireball moving close to horizontal with sparks trailing behind, then vanished. |
