| Name | Jasmine C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It seemed very close to the Earth, was bright, but smallish and a burning orange color. It was unusual and amazing how long the fireball lasted (around10 to 15 seconds) and also how it moved almost perfectly horizontal across the sky before burning up. |
