Name | Matt D |
Experience Level | 1/5 |
Remarks | I saw this meteor/fireball through a small window in my house, so while I can't confirm, I would allege that the meteor actually originated from 45 degree point (not the 225 degree point I entered in the form as the angle I first saw it), based on the angle I saw it moving through the small frame of my window I was looking through. |

Remarks | The fireball was a greenish hue as it sailed through the sky (it reminded me of a firework being shot about about to explode) and then there was a quick flash of orange light that disappeared as quickly as it first appeared. |
