Name | Tei M |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | Saw lightening like flashes, that lit up the sky right before meteor appeared. Also, the tail was not just a streak, but appeared more like flames, that were pale yellowish white. The meteor, which was green, was very large in appearance, Ilike it was very close to earth.......it was not jjust a streak up in the sky like a shooting star. I have never seen anything lile it before!! It looked so close that it seemed like , if it hit earth , it would have been somewhere close to our location. |
