Reports Report 39j (Event 39-2018)

Observer
Name Melanie G
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks This was completely different than any other meteor I have seen. Low, bright and flaming. It was clearly something burning and lasted long enough for me to see it, figure out what it was and point it out to my son. Other meteors I have seen have just been brief streaks of white.
