Observer
Name Roger L
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks At arms length the object trail was about 2" to 3", the light trail had sharp edges and no visible fragmentation, the trail was uniform color of white, the object vanished above the horizon/tree line which indicated to me that the object vaporized before it hit the ground. I am a MUFON investigator, a private pilot of 30 years and a trained observer for the Civil Air Patrol search and rescue.
