Reports Report 1152au (Event 1152-2020)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Stephanie K |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | My location and viewing angles are very approximate. I was driving eastbound on Highway 34 and the fireball was straight ahead- easily visible to someone who’s driving. There was increasing brightness before fragmentation. I think I remember some sparkle, but I’m unsure. There was a clearly visible green color, especially around the time of break-up. |
