Name | brian B |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | The object appeared to be approx. 300 yards away. It had a flat front edge about a meter across and the front, ( 6 inches ?), of it was glowing red/orange. The tail was about a yard wide and about 10 yards long. It was a light iridesent / metallic green with darker green lines running along it. It appeared to travel a lot slower than previous meteorites that I have seen. It seemed to land in a field approx. 300 yards away. It may have been space debris. I have no idea. PS:- The time I submitted for this event is probably +/_half an hour. |
