| Name | Mary C |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The light at first seemed to head towards us as I thought it was a bright star I was looking at. Then I realized it was moving west and closer! Closer as in I realized in a second it has entered the atmosphere and burned up upon entering. It faded out in colors! White, yellow, green, blue, orange, red (sort of the order of the colors). Then, fizzed out instantly after it turned red as it was heading west on downward slide. Then, nothing. As if is was never there. It truly was amazing to see! |
