Experience Level | 4/5 |
Remarks | Please could you let me know what this was and if there was any others who sighted the same thing? I would like to familiarise myself more with the night sky, and as a current Aerospace Engineer at the University of Bath I was wondering if there is any way I could get involved with UKMON. Cheers. |

Observation | Yes |
Remarks | As described, the fragmentation faded quickly. the main part stayed bright for a few seconds as it travelled through the sky. |
