| Name | Randy H |
| Experience Level | 5/5 |
| Remarks | I shoot night timelapse so I've seen dozens of meteors and many bolides. This one was odd because it appeared large, but not as bright as I would have thought it should have been for the size. It also seemed to move much slower than most that I see. I was in my hot tub and was looking in the direction it appeared, so saw I the whole show. |
