Reports Report 4416al (Event 4416-2016)

Observer
Name Arnold O
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks We were celebrating 'sint Maarten' with our kids when we saw it. My first thought was that someone was lighting fireworks because of all the colors, but because of the straight trajectory i concluded it must have been an object from space. I have seen a lot of meteorites, but never anything like this. It was quite spectacular!
