Observer
NameTreva O
Experience Level3/5
RemarksThe initial site high in the sky seemed like a shooting star but it lingered, it seemed, and then it was a blue “ball” at truck level from ground very close to me at park. Then it was gone. Such an amazing site. Wasn’t sure what I had just seen until I saw reports on local Facebook page.
