Reports Report 1028c (Event 1028-2013)

| Name | Emily M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I think that I may have recorded the initial angle and the final angle as being too high in the sky, the difference between the two is about right but each value might need to be 5-10 degrees lower. The path of the fireball appeared very low to the ground, so low that its trajectory would have reached the ground between where I observed it and the foothills of the San Francisco Peaks. This was the brightest meteor that I have ever seen, and it displayed the largest range of colors I have ever seen in real life. |
