Name | Sydney L |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | This was during the Orionid Meteor Shower on October 20, 2016. I'm not sure exactly what I saw, but considering it was during the Orionid it was probably a meteor. It was not very big from where is was standing, maybe the size of a large bowl, which means it was probably far away from me. |
