| Name | Ross B |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I saw the same “fireball”.meteor 00.45 BST 14/04/22. It light up my sight and changed from orange, red, blue and green! All very bright, I was Yurting near Shaftsbury, Dorset, so away from most light pollution. It appeared close and directly north in the sky from my position. I’ve checked other reports of it and there is a Phosjing on the Facebook group reporting a sighting and sonic booms is Wales at the same time, there is a still photos with what looks like the trail with many bright dots where it hit our atmosphere. It’s hard to know if the final green and then white was a final burn up of this meteor |
