| Name | Daniel W |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Having seen meteor showers before this was very different to your average 'shooting star'. Seems to have been isolated, lasted much longer, travelling further and a bit slower, with a much brighter 'head' which flashed between white and green and quite a long 'tail'. I'd just stepped outside and wasn't looking for anything so unfortunately did not have a camera ready. This is something I am unlikely to ever forget! |
