| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Joseph N |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Was just taking the dog for a walk, and noticed something moving at the top of my vision. Looked up to see the brightest shooting star I've ever seen. I watched it for a couple seconds before I pointed it out to my wife, who saw at least the second half of the event before it was obscured by trees. Lasted a good 5-8 seconds. Awesome to see. |
