Reports Report 2313d (Event 2313-2021)

Observer
Name Whitney M
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks Probably the first meteor of any kind I've ever seen. I was going out to find my cat to bring her in for the night, and i saw it through the branches of the trees here (not great evidence of angle, since we live on a hill). Consequently, my cat did show up, but in an opposite direction, so clearly, no correlation. 😆
