Reports Report 1185bx (Event 1185-2013)

Observer
Name Keith C
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It was so large, and lasted so long that I was petrified, standing in the yard, waiting for a BOOM!, or at least a rumble, or a flash to light up the sky on the horizon-but there was nothing. Still, it was the biggest shooting star I've ever seen, and hopefully ever will. Scary big
