Name | Diane S |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | It caught my eye as I was facing east talking to my friend. I first thought it was an ember from something burning floating downward, but as it moved southwest it had a downward trajectory of a solid object (rather than something floating). It had a definite pink/orange burning look before it went dark - or from my perception burned out. After it crossed to south side of street, I pointed it out to my friend who then saw it. At that point it was "framed" between the powerline wires across the street and seemed to continue southwesterly for a fraction of a second before it went dark. |
