| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Travis A |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was looking down with my dog who wanted outside and the room filled with light like a car had pointed headlights through the window, (but it was the backyard not near a street where that could happen) I looked out and saw the tail. It was more defined than any meteor or “shooting start” I’ve ever seen. I missed the brightest part that lasted about 1-1.5sec, the tail was visible another 2-3 sec. |
