Reports Report 4239ij (Event 4239-2016)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Linda R |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I live in an area surrounded by hills, so I didn't see the actual fireball because the hills were blocking it. I saw two bright flashes, and it struck me as odd because the sky was perfectly clear at the time and I could see many stars. |
