| Name | Emilia W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It started as what looked like a white shooting star but slower and more staggered than we’ve seen before (my husband and I witnessed it) then got larger and faster and shot down with an orange and blue tail in addition to the bright white. I’ve seen a shooting star go quickly across the sky before, but this was larger, lower, and with a colorful tail in the end right in front of us as we were driving up the hill. Really amazing! |
