Observer
Name Brent L
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks I was lucky enough to see nearly the entire event. From my position, it slowly gained in magnitude and apparent velocity as it traveled over Denver, CO. There was a slight fluctuation in its magnitude; occurring approximately at 3/4 of its path, where it gained its max magnitude immediately after; unfortunately I did not see any fragments.
