| Name | Linda S |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I know it wasn't a plane because it was moving too fast, the light wasn't blinking, and it disappeared. It looked like a comet with a large round head and a short tail but seemed very low in the sky. It traveled right to left. I was in a car looking up through the windshield when I saw it so I didn't hear anything but it was large enough to catch my attention so I followed it across the sky on a very clear night until it disappeared. We just ate dinner out so the time is approximate but is close at around 6:15pm as we were headed to an appointment at 6:30pm. |
