| Name | Julien D |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The ball was white, blue/light blue outline around the rear face with an orangish tail in follow. I don’t have much experience observing meteors, but this one was bright and big enough that even a novice like myself couldn’t miss it. Very obvious. |
