Reports Report 8097bh (Event 8097-2025)

Observer
Name Sidney W
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I honestly wasn't even looking for it, I was just letting my dog out and it just so happened to have been slowly streaking across the sky, breaking apart as it went. I could tell it was slowly descending with how it's path was beginning to curve down from gravity. I'm worried it might hit something before it reaches any body of water or empty field or marshland.
