Reports Report 682c (Event 682-2023)

Observer
Name Tyson A
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Math isn't my strong suite so I used https://stjarnhimlen.se/comp/radfaq.html#10 to estimate the stellar magnitude. It was as bright as the new white LED street lamps which I'm estimating are around 80 lumens. Maybe adding some more normal human experience examples like that to the help page for the stellar magnitude section could be helpful in getting more reliable data?
