Reports Report 2585f (Event 2585-2020)

Observer
Name Richard N
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks Brightness is difficult for me to judge. It was about the same as 4 Venuses put together maybe a bit more- so about 4 times as large and as bright but not bright enough to light up the sky and ground like a quarter moon or larger.
