Reports Report 5210t (Event 5210-2024)

Observer
Name Bruce H
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Brightest thing I've ever seen at night, granted the moon isn't out tonight, so my eyes aren't adjusted. The fireball it's self seemed brighter than a full moon, and light up the surrounding area, almost as if we had a brief moment of day light.
