| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Nell E |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | As I'm surrounded by trees it seemed to just appear before me and also only disappeared out of view because of the damn trees again, but because it was blocked by trees made me consider how low it actually was, it seemed a lot lower than other shooting stars I've seen, this seemed huge. |
