Reports Report 6000b (Event 6000-2021)

Observer
Name Maggie L
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I saw it behind a person I was talking to outside at night. Extremely bright and made me think “what was that?!”. I’ve seen 100’s of shooting stars, this was different than the quick thin streaks. This was big, bright, wide and slower. Didn’t notice an obvious tail.
