Reports Report 3541d (Event 3541-2015)

Observer
Name Anthony M
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Speed of the object was like nothing I've ever seen before. The size of the object was like that of an airplane, as well as the amount of light given off by the object except moderately brighter. The object was undoubtedly on fire with the frequent fragmentation, but no great flash of light or sound associated with the object. From my view, it seemed to have flown over Kent State University.
