Reports Report 1076ap (Event 1076-2022)

Observer
Name Lea A
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks This was by far the longest and most amazing meteor we have ever seen. My husband, daughter and I all watched it for about 5 seconds. We wondered if it was one of the starlink satellites falling. It appeared to come precariously close to the horizon and was a large ball of light, not a small 'shooting star'.
