| Name | Eric L |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Frustratingly, I saw this meteor through a window from a lit bedroom. Regardless, it was still very impressive. Actually, it may be considered more impressive due to my obstructed vantage point, because I doubt an average meteor would have ever caught my attention under these circumstances. I was not actively looking out the window, rather the meteor appeared in my peripheral vision and caused me to turn my head in time to see its fragmentation. |
