Reports Report 3797b (Event 3797-2023)

Observer
Name Josh F
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Two in one night! This was not as bright as the one I reported a few hours earlier, but still significantly brighter than any star or planet. The image is straight from the raw file: 20mm, 13sec exposure at ISO 12,800, so for a 1.5sec event to show so brightly… I caught a few other meteors that were barely visible.
