| Name | Diane M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It may not have been as steep as 180 degrees, but it was steep when I first saw it then straight up and down. It looked like a bright meteor at first, then flared up and got extremely bright. I have watched many meteor showers my whole life and am always looking at the sky. I never saw something like this. |
