Reports Report 3638zy (Event 3638-2014)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Joshua S |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Given its brightness and green color, I first thought it was a firework, but the angle and speed were too off. Even acknowledging the human tendency to misjudge such things, I am fairly confident that the object by son and I observed would have landed within 2 miles of where we were, somewhere in the vicinity of Lorimer Park in Montgomery County. |
