Reports Report 1630g (Event 1630-2012)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Necee |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I noticed the person in an SUV in front of me looking in the same direction as I was and then they got on their cell phone directly afterwards, as if they were alarmed, possibly, wanting to share what they had just witnessed. The meteor seemed very low and very close. There may have been terminal explosions or flashes but I was so tired it\'s hard to remember exactly. It was quite alarming and exciting. I attempted to make a report early yesterday morning shortly after witnessing the \"event\" using my iPad but when asked to show the direction I was facing, I was unable to interface with the program. |
