Observer
Name	Denise K
Experience Level	3/5
Remarks	I was shocked by how bright it was and how near it seemed. I was watching the International Space Station fly over from WNW to SE. It was about 45 degrees when this fireball caught my attention emanating from the lowest two stars in the Big Dipper and traveling straight down. It disappeared behind my neighbor’s house and was still extremely bright.
