Reports Report 4820d (Event 4820-2024)

Observer
Name Sydney M
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks This was the brightest shooting star I’ve ever seen in my life, it’s looked like it was burning, it was huge, with the longest light trail I’ve ever seen, much brighter than any planet I’ve seen and it went almost through the two bright stars at the end of the handle of the Big Dipper, I really hope I wasn’t the only one to have the privilege of seeing it
