Observer
NameJulia H
Experience Level2/5
RemarksThis was in the middle of town in a well-lit parking lot. Only the brightest stars are visible. I was surprised to see a shooting star, especially one like that, in that kind of place. The shooting stars I have seen are much smaller, dimmer, and have a much narrower tail than this one.
