Reports Report 3363i (Event 3363-2020)

Observer
Name H B
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks We saw typical shooting stars prior in the same direction, before observing the distinctively larger ‘fireball’ (bluish, wider, a touch slower than a shooting star) that seemed to be falling toward earth or the horizon rather than a quick skinnier flash across the sky.
