| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Kate R |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I turned around due to someone saying something about seeing the meteor - I didn't see it appear - and because we are in the city, the meteor disappeared behind a building. It was next to Venus in the sky at the time described (started around the same location) and it was very similar in size/magnitude to Venus, maybe even larger/brighter. |
