Observer
Name ben D
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks The fireball was either coming almost directly towards me or directly away from me. It lasted about 4 seconds. It appeared as a very bright object, which I immediately thought was Venus but it was moving. Then it faded as it drifted northwards and disappeared.
