Reports Report 2056af (Event 2056-2022)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Christian B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I’ve seen meteors flying overhead, I’ve seen airplanes, helicopters, the space station and other satellites. This wasn’t any of that, but it did appear to resemble videos that pop up every once in a show of meteors or meteor fragments entering the earth’s atmosphere. I was facing southeast when I first saw it and it flew out over the ocean before it disappeared. |
