Name | Debbie S |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | It was by chance that I was the one looking up at that moment on our evening walk on our 16 acre farm with our pup, Imogene, and my husband and son. It was super bright and distinctive as compared to anything seen in that direction of RTP/Raleigh, where we are used to and able to identify various planes out of RDU, etc. and have lived here over 30 years. On good nights the night sky here is amazingly clear, not so that low on the horizon, that early. |
