Observer
NameJillian P
Experience Level2/5
RemarksThis was different than anything I've seen before. It was a very short but large light in the sky with a ball on the front and a little tail with some color to it. I was only a couple seconds, popped into the sky. Moving from right to left. Somewhat horizontally but dropping a tiny bit before it disappeared . My young daughter witnessed it as well. We have seen multiple sightings near our place since we've lived here on the last year and a half, but this one was quite amazing.
