Observer
Name Jonathon S
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I have never seen anything so spectacular flying through the air, this meteor moved so slow compared to any other ive ever seen. the colors it burned, the greens, blues and white were amazing. it fizzed out for a second then flared back up brighter than ever! i had enough time to tell a couple co workers to stop and look, and they had enough time to stop and gaze as well.
