Observer
Name Alyssa M
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks i’ve just never seen anything like it. it wasn’t like any shooting star i’ve ever seen. i honestly was anticipating some kind of natural disaster, it felt like the movie Dinosaur. and the angle at which it was descending, like it wasn’t a matter of perception like with airplanes etc., the trajectory was toward earth. it was slow enough to contemplate some existential dread. i think i could even see the object, or at least the negative space of the object as the light turned from white to red and orange in a fiery blaze around it. i couldn’t believe my eyes. hopefully this information is useful, i wonder if anyone else saw the same thing.

Remarks it just happened so suddenly. the initial light in the sky. when it streaked i thought it was too bright and slow to be a shooting star. but before it streaked it was like a silent.. burst of light, but no fragmentation if what i think that means is correct.
