| Name | Dean L |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Although I have no astronomy/observing experience, I’ve never seen anything like that, it was definitely NOT starlink as it was too low, it was bright enough to see a bright smoke trail which followed behind it, weird thing was there was no sound, I don’t think it was anything sinister (ufo or rockets) it wasn’t a shooting star as it was a lot slower. |
