Name | Alicia P |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | We caught the very end of it, I took a picture of the trail left behind. It approched me from the left, flew over my car and broke apart/ burned out to my right Im going to go look to see if I can find any meteorites. It was witnessed by 100+ people as it's a busy time of day Im not sure if I got the trajectory right. |
