Reports Report 844e (Event 844-2026)

Observer
Name Blaine C
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks My first ever fireball. I was passing an elderly couple who had missed the whole thing. I stood there in awe wondering why the universe wanted me to see it instead of the them. It was so quick. So bright. I wish they could have seen it too.
