Reports Report 6560h (Event 6560-2019)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Deane M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I'm unsure of the time and the exact spot. It was almost a year ago. I could be off by 45 minutes and 200 feet. But the path I was on is long and straight. Anybody on that stretch would've seen it, but I saw no one. I don't know how to rate my observing experience. I am well versed in watching stars, but meteors are unpredictable, so, not so much. |
