| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Becky W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | What I would describe as a large meteor with a bright green tail. I was travelling out of Brighton, northbound on the A23 at just after 22:00 Sunday 17th May 2015. I can't be sure of the exact time but probably before 22:30. The 'fireball' was over to the West as I travelled past the Poinings / Fulking area, just North of Devils Dyke. |
