Reports Report 3027b (Event 3027-2022)

Observer
Name Maddie S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was out camping and saw 10-12 different meteors all going in different directions. Some were very short, just a quick white flash lasting about 1-2 seconds. Others were longer and more yellow orange in color leaving a longer trail behind them. Two of them were blueish and brighter than the rest. It was amazing.
