Observer
NameApril B
Experience Level2/5
RemarksIt was really neat and it seemed odd that it felt like it was so low I could have grabbed it but the sonic boom sound was delayed at least 5 to 8 minutes. It was a very bright ball of white light with the crackling light behind it that was red, yellow, orange. We were outside at night walking the dogs. It made me want to see where it landed but we had the dogs
