| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I've seen meteor showers that appear like 1mm dots that stretch 25mm behind, stars appear to also be 1mm, while jupiter is 3mm. If that is my usual measurement, the head of what I saw was about 10mm wide with a 55mm tail, implying closeness. |

| Remarks | It looked huge or close. It was sperm shaped with the head facing down. There was light fog so it looked a little hazy but I could see wisps of green coming off the tail. Some of the wisps had very short lasting sparks of orange-red at the ends. |
