Reports Report 6518j (Event 6518-2023)

Observer
Name Mary R
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was on a couch watching a movie with a companion when we both had our eyes caught by a large, very bright streak arcing slightly downward high in the southern sky. This was seen through a window to our right, so we didn’t see how much farther up it started. With the full moon and city lights, there are no other stars that can be seen tonight except Jupiter so it was notable in its size and brightness.
