Reports Report 4840f (Event 4840-2021)

Observer
Name Robin S
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks My sister and I saw it at the same time. It appeared first thru the trees and we both thought "airplane" but it continued on into the open and disappeared behind more trees. It was quick but lasted longer than a normal meteor and was much larger and brighter with a hint of green. I saw no tail, but my sister said she did. It was the coolest thing I've ever seen
