Observer
Name Leslie G
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I saw the object in the sky as I was driving. It appeared to be a large ball with a glowing tail that disappeared after just a few seconds. I was surprised at how big and bright it was, compared to videos of meteor showers I've seen. It seemed like it was very close.
