| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It was astonishing to see. I had just woken up and viewed it from my window. It took me a minute or two to process what it even could be. The sky was still mostly dim, but no stars were visible. I am not positive it was a fireball, but I can’t think of any other reasonable explanation. Too big to be a satellite or ISS or any other thing I’ve seen in the sky. |
