Reports Report 4397bf (Event 4397-2021)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Marinus A |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I did not see the actual fireball, I only saw the sky light up (a lot) in a specific direction. I was driving in the country (no street lights) and the sky suddenly lighted up behind the village I was driving towards, as if very powerfull fireworks, or maybe a large military weapon being fired miles away. I then thought it could be a meteor, and found one was sighted 23:14 in northen Jutland, and I assume i probably saw the same event. As stated the clock in my car said 23:15. I think it must been low in the horizon, since it was obscured by trees and buildings in front of me. The direction I gave for seeing the fireball is the direction I saw the sky light up in. |
