Reports Report 1046bg (Event 1046-2026)

Observer
Name Caitlin K
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks My birthday is August 13, so I always watch the Perseids meteor shower. I’m not an expert, but passionately love stars and outerspace. So I do not take it lightly and this is the second time I have reported to you! The last time it was verified afterwards and I am hoping this one will be too!
