Observer
Name KERI
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I saw this the night of my brothers funeral. We had always watched meteor showers together as kids. I was sitting out by myself when I witnessed this fireball. It was the brightest slowest moving meteor I had ever seen and fell downward directly in line where we had grown up as kids. Thats why I remember exactly when, where and what I saw that night over a year ago.
