Reports Report 6288b (Event 6288-2019)

| Name | Geraint W |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The direction I saw the object was roughly over the Great Orme. I thought it was an aircraft at first. The colour was a bright yellow/gold. The "tail" was quite long, and the "head" appeared big. I would say the duration was just over ten seconds. I was surprised how leisurely it arced down, and having seen meteors before, how "slowly" it was happening. Eventually it vanished without a fuss. I would be interested to find out if anyone else saw it. An amazing experience !! |
