Observer
Name Sevara T
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks > Date and Time: June 5, 2025 at 22:20 (local time, Uzbekistan) Location: Namangan District, Uzbekistan Description: I saw a bright flying object in the night sky that lasted for about 15 seconds. It looked like an orange burning fireball, and it had a purple tail with small sparks. The object was moving from one side of the sky to another, slowly fading as it flew. It did not explode or flash brightly at the end, it just dimmed and disappeared. Sound: I heard no sound before, during, or after the sighting. Brightness: It was much brighter than any star, similar to a very bright fire or flare. Color: Orange main body, purple/violet tail, and some white sparks. I’ve seen meteor videos before, but this one looked different — it was more like something burning and flying in the sky than a classic meteor. No photos or videos, unfortunately. I saw it with my own eyes.
