| Name | Rodrigo D |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I do not know where the ocean liner was or in what direction I was facing when I took the photo I uploaded. However, I was aboard the ship "Allure of the Seas" at 11:00 p.m. on 12-2-23. The ship was headed to Coco Cay in the Bahamas. I pointed my phone's camera out a window on the starboard side of deck 15, near the aft of the ship. If you can determine the ship's coordinates at 11:00 p.m. on 12-2-23, you will know exactly where I saw the fireball. Also, I have two other photos of the meteor, should you need them. |
