Reports Report 1252bj (Event 1252-2026)

Observer
Name Benjamin W
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks Unsure of the time accuracy as i didn't have my phone. It happened on a walk roughly between 18:50-19:15 i believe. A constant clean moving fireball which in the first split second i thought was a plane until i realised its speed and trajectory, until disappearing suddenly. One of the smoothest fireballs i have seen with no trail or fragmentation.
