Reports Report 3151afd (Event 3151-2019)

Observer
Name Todd A
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I have seen many shooting stars and observed multiple showers from my backyard and hunting experiences. I have never seen a single object in the sky that was this large, bright & impressive. My nephew and I were concerned as it appeared to be streaking downwards at an angle of approximately 10 degrees thinking it might strike a populated area and make national news immediately. Glad all is well and we both takeaway a memory from a family reunion in Scituate MA we will never forget.
