This report has been linked to the following event: Event 9267-2022
Observer
Namealia B
Experience Level3/5
RemarksThe flash appeared in the sky within about a finger's width of the 7 o'clock position of Mars, which is what we were looking at at the time. I checked my sky app (SkyGuide) because I thought perhaps it was the ISS, and there are several objects that could pass through that part of the sky at that time (Cosmos rocket and satellite, ENVIsat), but this seemed quite a bit brighter than the usual satellite.
