Reports Report 3520ay (Event 3520-2020)

Observer
Name Daniel H
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks Me and my family always watch the stars and look for shooting stats when we are down at our lake and we have never seen anything like this even though we have watched meteor showers and many nights of shooting stars here. We saw a big orange Shooting-star-like object flying across the sky until it burned up after about 7 seconds. The most bizarre sighting we have had in 25 years at table rock lake
