Reports Report 2192a (Event 2192-2018)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Paulina T |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I wasn't even paying attention to the sky the moment it appeared (I was actually watching TV), but I was facing at a window so, I guess that shows how the glowing of it was really eye catching. Also, I've seen tons of profesional and amateur footage of fireballs trough all my life and I can say very confidently that this was indeed one. |
