| Name | Declan T |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This is the brightest meteor I've ever seen. It resembled a firework in clarity, brightness and speed, except it was far too high up, and was travelling in a slight downward trajectory with fragments breaking off, and no explosion at the end (if there was one it was behind some high trees in my eyeline). |
