Reports Report 1074dr (Event 1074-2017)

Observer
Name Haley C
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I'be never seen anything like it. I thought I was seeing things when I saw it. It looked like something in the earth's atmosphere coming towards the earth rather than something passing by in space. (But I don't actually know that. I have no experience or knowledge.) But it was definitely amazing.
