Reports Report 756ad (Event 756-2020)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Nicholas v |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have from time to time through the years watched the Perseids, so curious about "falling stars". This fireball a much larger, more vivid version of such a sighting, and lower to the horizon than I recall with Perseids. I have only once before seen a comparable fireball, some years back (also reported to this website). |
