Reports Report 1366a (Event 1366-2013)

Observer
Name Ruth S
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I don't know what a terminal flash is, however this meteor was unlike any other I'd seen. In addition to being a very bright meteor, the meteor was rimmed with "fire" like you would see around one of the early space capsules when they'd reenter the earth's atmosphere. The fire was around the bottom and up the sides of the meteor as it fell.
