Reports Report 1235f (Event 1235-2013)

Observer
Name Tim M
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Streaked very fast, ~0.1 second for full track of ~10 degrees, SSE from my location, traveling north to SE, but at a steep angle from my point of view, and was about 35-40 degrees above the horizon. Streaked for about 5-7 degrees, blacked out, then flashed for a brief distance. Much brighter than airplane strobes of a plane in the PHX pattern -3 to 15 miles away. Brighter than Jupiter, perhaps as bright as Venus when it flashed (~-4).
