| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Natalia G |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | I would like to know what this was, if in fact a fireball, or something else, like space trash, etc. It was big, not a thin streak like a \"shooting star\" and very much like an explosion, such as from the tail of a rocket. Thanks! |
