10. CONCLUSION Astre(meteor) [HW:]

11. BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS Observer watched a bullet shaped object that disappeared toward the north. The object had a yellowish inside area changing to a reddish hue on the edges. No exhaust or vapor trail was noted. It looked like it might have been shot out of something. It made the observer think of a bullet because it was the fastest thing the witness had ever seen. No flames were seen but the object looked like it was red hot, like hot coals in a furnace. Observer has seen other quite different things in the past few months.

The description is consistent with that of a meteor observation. The colors are consistent with that normally reported. The short duration prevented the observer from providing a more complete description of the object.
