Reports Report 3551bg (Event 3551-2024)

Observer
Name Bradley H
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks My friend messaged me and said the moon was radiant tonight so I stepped out to have a look. She was right and I would’ve missed the fireball if she hadn’t said anything. It caught my eye, it was like a missile. I thought it was a missile at first but it disappeared after a second. It was beautiful. It’s a clear night, a bit chillier than it has been. I had a clear view of it but I understand these things are very rare to witness so I don’t have any experience reporting them and I had no idea where to even report it. It was extraordinary.
