| Name | Leslie S |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The meteor I observed last night was extremely bright, and appeared very close. The tip of it was not rounded it was box shaped and gave off an extremely bright blue and green color.I have seen many meteors, and this one was out of the ordinary for me, I thought it may be space junk entering the atmosphere. For the size of it at my range I thought it would give off aa sonic boom. I was surprised it did not. I saw it walking out my door at 6:30 pm looking east/southeast. |
