Reports Report 2539a (Event 2539-2020)

Observer
Name Erin K
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks We were looking at a night sky app prior, so I know it came from the direction of Ursa Major (my son saw it first). I had to look straight up to see it. It was lower to the horizon than the North Star. I have never seen anything like it before. It was amazing.
