Reports Report 5114ah (Event 5114-2022)

Observer
Name Mark S
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It was less like a fireball and more like a fat green dayglo vapor trail at very high speed heading down then extinguishing just before the ground level. It was as wide as mu thumb at arms length in the sky and the trail was long and appeared to last for almost the full duration. Definitely a meteor but the largest and most vivid I have seen. Previously I have seen large fireballs but this seemed much closer
