Reports Report 86ai (Event 86-2011)

Observer
Name Vangie R
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks The object I saw seemed really large. I've seen shooting stars and this was a lot slower and a lot larger. Due to the color I thought maybe it was some sort of firework. If it was it was the only one! It seemed like it took a second or two befor it began to descend. Please don't use my name publicly if you can help it. Thanks.
