Terminal flash | |
---|---|
Observation | Yes |
Remarks | Almost as if it had dulled for a split second and then got brighter then in previously had been and the fire trail after the flash intensified. |
Fragmentation | |
---|---|
Observation | Yes |
Remarks | The flash wasn't major from my view but the moon was also very full and in the same eye direction. It was by far one of the biggest, most colorful I've ever seen. The hue of green was amazing and though the tail wasn't very long, it was wide with many large particles. |
