| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Max G |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was not looking at the sky initially when my porch was suddenly illuminated by ambient green light. When I looked up, I saw what was clearly a projectile - bright green glow, with what appeared to be yellow/white "sparks" a short distance behind. The angle of descent made me think I might actually hear an impact, but no sounds were observed. The descent had a rounded arc to it. I google image searched and this is the best approximation: https://goo.gl/images/3BamgW |
