Reports Report 5216e (Event 5216-2025)

Observer
Name Kim M
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks We were just sitting outside when I first spotted the meteor. I was so excited I started yelling at my family to hurry where I was standing because it was moving fast. But not like the usual “shooting stars” we see. Those are really fast but this one took its sweet time and allowed me time enough to get my phone and take this short video and a couple pictures. I was extremely happy with this experience!
