Observer
Name Brian S
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks The meteor I observed was a hot blue color similar to the color of the star Sirius A in the constellation, Canis Major. I was in my car looking up through the front windshield at the constellation, Orion the Hunter. The meteor appeared to be traveling directly North to South and lasted about 1 second for my observation.Thank you for your help and this Beautiful Website! Wishing All of You and Your Families a Very Blessed and Happy Christmas and New Year!!!+++ Brian (& Connie) Swigert
