Observer
Name nick h
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This was by far the brightest entering I've ever seen, and the purity of white that it was as it slowly went across the sky was amazing. This went from one side of the sky to the other, before if went out. We were simply amazed. I thought it had to be rather low but seeing as people as far as Seattle saw it, it had to be relatively high.
