Name | Eric W |
Experience Level | 1/5 |
Remarks | Seen through living room window, while watching tv. So not sure of actual first visible angle or when it disappeared as possibly was obscured by my tall pine trees. Looked very large and close, went outside to see if I could see or hear anything. Everything was calm, looked like it was on course to hit my neighbors house up the street. Probably very far away in reality, guessing 1/16th to 1/8th of a full moon. Hard to say as no moon out tonight that I could see. Probably 30 degree above horizon when came into view because of window, only could see for 5 to degree of travel before trees blocked sight. |
