| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The trail of the fireball, was lit by the sun which had not yet risen. The trail radiated out behind it in at maybe a 45 degree angle and persisted for maybe 10 seconds, lighting up the horizon it seemed. It dissapeared behind the hill and trees but looked like it was dying out by that point. Spectacular! |
