Reports Report 1981cv (Event 1981-2024)

Observer
Name Alice E
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I observed what looked like a huge meteor just above the neighbor's house to the west of us. I've never seen a meteor that huge, so guessing it was what you're calling a fireball. It had a tail and was bright white.
