| Name | Katie B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Was with 4 other people who all saw it, who have more astronomy knowledge than me and they saw they have never seen anything like this. It was much brighter than a typical meteor, lasted much longer in terms of how long it was visible, had a larger “trail” behind it, and the distance it travelled accross the sky was longer than most meteors I have seen. |
