Reports Report 36d (Event 36-2024)

Observer
Name Evan H
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Fog is thick in the area to the point Jupiter is barely visible yet the meteor was clearly visible. Mountains exist in the direction of observation yet the meteor appeared to naturally peter out and was not obstructed by the mountains when I feel it very well should have been if it was behind them (fog makes this hard to estimate however so elevation and maps would be needed to corroborate)
