| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Lisa v |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I thought at first it was firework, but it went like a shooting star, very high in the sky and came from above to below. Apart from observing shooting stars I dont have any astronomy observation experience, but when I googled what I could have seen I’m quite sure it could be a fireball. |
