| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Chris T |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Bad time to have my headphones in, listening to radio! Pulling into the driveway. Thought it was a firework, until I realized it had a visible width and didn't diminish as it fell. Bright green head with a bright green long tail. Looked like a falling ball of fire, not a pinpoint light or thin arc as traditional "shooting stars" appear. No idea about sound effects due to headphones. Appeared to fall almost vertically from my angle. |
