| Name | Pete R |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I occasionally see meteors when out stargazing or fishing late at night. Once many years ago I saw something similar which I thought was close to being a fireball. What I saw tonight was bigger, brighter and faster than previous. It was an amazing spectacle to see! I wasn't looking for anything at the time, I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. |
