| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It was unlike anything I've seen before. I've seen meteor showers over the years, but nothing as spectacular, bright, and as close as this. It was bright, so white, and so close. I was almost certain that I would hear something had impacted nearby. Very incredible. |
