Experience Level
3/5
Remarks
It happened pretty fast but slow enough for me to think I was seeing a meteor and then realize that it was something else. I kind of thought it was some type of fire cracker but there was no noise and it was just a streak. I’ve seen a few meteor showers and this seemed different.
