A flying ball of light faster than a comet near Mt. Tamalpais.
I am almost 13, and I was on a Boy Scout Camp Out to Mt. Tamalpais near San Francisco. 3 other scouts and I were sleeping outside on a tent tarp. Another scout and I was looking up at the stars.
Suddenly, on the western part of the sky, we saw a round ball of light, flash across the sky, about the size of a gumball! The scout asked me, "Did you just see that shooting star?" I replied saying, "That's not a shooting star, it was a lot bigger!"
I know for sure it wasn't a comet because it lasted about a millisecond!
