| Name | Areina C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I believe this was definitely a fireball, but I do not know if it was a meteor or not. I thought it was a shooting star, but I also figured that shooting stars didn’t get that close to the atmosphere. Either way. It was very exciting to see something like that and something I will never forget. |
