| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | A C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I have large windows on two sides of my flat, saw a bright light in the room from the south facing windows and then I looked up through the west facing windows and I could see it. At first I thought its a firework but I froze with the phone in my hand - it was NOT that. It all happened a few meters away from our building. Some of it might have landed above Segro or in the New River Sports park just behind it. It disintegrated at 20 meters above ground, right in front of my eyes. |
