The 6th of November 2017 at1700 Hrs i saw a huge silver comet to the top right hand side of the Moon.It was about the 10TH of the size of the Moon.The sky was clear and i was driving south through the village of Cenac in the Dordogne France.It was visable for about 5mins and was bright silver,possibly due to the reflextion on the sun as it was setting.Is this the same thing that your reporting about?
