Reports Report 5694n (Event 5694-2023)

Observer
Name Emma U
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks It was low on the horizon, large and bright enough to startle my partner and I while driving. If it hadn't disappeared while still in the sky, I would have thought it was a spacecraft crashing to Earth because it appeared to be so close to the horizon line and vibrant, fiery orange.
