Reports Report 2165bt (Event 2165-2014)

Observer
Name Karen F
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks There were two of us who saw this event and it was one of the most bright and amazing things either of us have seen in the night sky. Incredibly unique and memorable. Almost unbelievable to witness. It was much larger than a typical "shooting star". It took up a portion of sky about half the size of the moon. It was large to look at. We would love to know what we saw.
