Reports Report 3683e (Event 3683-2025)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Mustafa M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I observed a bright, flaming object moving steadily from south to north across the sky. It was visible for over one minute, and I saw a short tail and some small spark-like fragments trailing behind it. There was no sound associated with the event. The object eventually disappeared as it moved farther toward the northern horizon. Other witnesses in my area also saw it. It started from the southern part of the sky and moved toward the north in a straight line. I am reporting this in case it was a fireball or space debris reentry. Please let me know if others have reported similar sightings in Egypt or nearby regions. |
