11. BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS Observers reported an object that was extremely bright red in the front section and a bright white in the rear section. The object was moving at high speed and appeared to be a single object as bright as a light bulb at ten feet. The front section looked like a truncated cone which was on fire.
Note: The description is consistent with that of a meteor or fireball observation; however, the course indicates the object had a fast acceleration and deceleration requiring further detailed study and the case is being carried as insufficient data for evaluation.
[HW:] Prox motion + imagination
