| Name | Meagan R |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It caught my eye as I was walking out of a big box store into a brightly lit parking lot, so the magnitude is just a guess. Mostly white light, fragments were yellow/orange as they burned out. Very clear sky. Not sure if a meteor or space junk and would love to know! |
