Reports Report 3508m (Event 3508-2015)

Observer
Name Charles R
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks I was inside at the time, but the object was large and bright enough to catch my eye through partially closed curtains. I initially mistook it for an extremely low flying aircraft, which would be unusual, given its position and trajectory. The event lasted approximately 3 seconds.
