Reports Report 1425g (Event 1425-2025)

Observer
Name Hillary C
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I’ve seen shooting stars. I’ve never seen anything like this. I know spacex exploded last night. This was not at all the same (I only saw videos of spacex). I was walking my dogs and talking to my mom on the phone. It happened so fast, all I could do was scream “what the f” in the middle of the street. I posted about it on facebook and two others near me saw it too. I could be wrong about the direction but I know whatever I saw was something very special. It was wild.
