Reports Report 383bb (Event 383-2013)

Observer
Name Cujas W
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks When I saw this, I thought of a falling star, but it was too bright and too big! When I researched it, I knew I had seen the same meteor that was seen on the East Coast. On a clear night on the west coast of FL, we could always see a shuttle land, so I was excited to know that I knew what I had seen really was a meteor!
