| Name | Janet C |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I've seen many falling stars and this was NOT that! It was huge, for one thing, and it glowed so brightly with a bright blue to begin, that changed to an emerald green, and finally to an off white color as it disappeared. The strange thing was that the tail wasn't a straight line like with falling stars! It looked like a cylindrical plume of various gases as all the colors where mixed up in the tail! |
