Observer
Name Veronica Y
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks This was the second fireball I saw this week, but only today did I look up info about it. I’ve never seen anything like it in Pasadena. I’ve seen shooting starts in the county and in Galveston where there is less light pollution but this was the first time seeing one by my house. It was beautiful
