| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Very bright, and could definitely see it dissipating the closer it got to earth, and it was slowing down. Definitely within the earths atmosphere and appeared to be within low flying plane altitudes. 2nd meteor was about 10 seconds after. Far less bright and much higher up. Perfect white light coming down. |
