Observer
NameLynda D
Experience Level3/5
RemarksI didn’t realize what I was seeing at first. It was a huge flaming ball with a tail. I watched it disappear and expected to see an explosion. There is an airport near us and I thought it was a plane crash because it seemed so close. But then my common sense told me it must be a comet or meteor.
