Reports Report 951d (Event 951-2020)

Observer
Name Andrew S
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks It appeared to fall straight down to the north of Pueblo. It was fast, very fast it happened in a matter of maybe half a second. There is a military base near by but I have never seen anything like that. It reminded me of the meteor shower that I watched a few years back but it went vertically. It was one cooler then dimmed before lighting up even brighter.
