| Name | Matt C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Im a night photagrapher and have seen hundreds of meteors, this was a big orange slow falling object, i believe there was a smoke trail but icy hazy sky with halo around a nearly full moon made it difficult to discern at best. If i had to take a guess at what it was, i would say space debri due to speed and orange teardrop tail. |
