Reports Report 4701c (Event 4701-2024)

Observer
Name Kaleb M
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks The meteor had a red trail that didn't linger, and about halfway through it's travel the meteor changed somewhat but it's hard to describe what happened exactly due to the brief window that I could see it. I lost sight of the meteor when it went below the tree-line. I frequently watch aircraft, particularly military aircraft from the nearby Amberly RAAF base and this was many times faster than any of the jets.
