Reports Report 1775ns (Event 1775-2019)

Observer
Name Doug D
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This was bigger and brighter than any meteor I've seen in my lifetime by a large margin. The fireball was bright green, and approximately half of the trail appeared green as well before turning white toward the back half of the trail. The green portion of the trail was notably longer than the trail appears to be in the few video captures I've found online since the observation. I have yet to see an image that does the length and brightness of the trail justice.
