Name | Karen B |
Experience Level | 1/5 |
Remarks | I was just in my living room looking out and it was large and bright enough to catch my eye. From where I am just above the Carefree Highway, looking north, it looked like it was over Daisy Mtn. and not very high above the horizon. It was large, bigger than any star I've seen in the sky. At first I thought shooting star but the sky was to light blue for that and the very white, bright ball was large. Thought maybe meteor so I googled news to see if anything happened. Not sure of exact time but after 7:00 AM and before 7:30 I think. |
