Reports Report 1739o (Event 1739-2017)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Belinda M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Please note that from where I was standing, a three-story building was directly south of me, thus between me and the fireball. I could only guess how far above the true horizon it was​, because the building blocked my view of it after several seconds of watching. It was beautiful, though! |
