Reports Report 1815a (Event 1815-2024)

Observer
Name Charles S
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This happened at the same time as the eclipse today right as we got into the totality of the eclipse I happen to look north and saw this fireball. Everyone else was looking up so I guess that’s why I haven’t seen anybody report yet, but my friends also witnessed it also , so at least I don’t sound like I’m going crazy.
