Observer
NameDebbie K
Experience Level2/5
RemarksI was walking my dog when all of a sudden the flash appeared in the west, and just dropped straight down. It was very bright, and light blue. I have seen many falling stars…this absolutely was not a falling star. It had no tail or trail of light. It was ball shaped. What a fantastic sight to see!
