Reports Report 6245m (Event 6245-2020)

Observer
Name Jeffrey F
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was driving so I couldn’t get a video or picture, but it was the brightest flash across the sky I have ever seen. We’re in a very rural area so the night sky is pretty dark and seeing a shooting star isn’t super uncommon, but this was something more than I have ever seen.
