| Name | Tamara C |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have some photos of whatever this is. At first I thought it was a plane, but then realized it was falling straight down. It went below my sight line, and it seemed several miles away. I don't know if it was a meteor, but some friends who saw the photos thought it might be. Thanks! |
