Observer
Name Dustie K
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks It was almost magical watching it, and if it really was a meteor then it was genuinely amazing to be able to witness something like that for the first time. Also it didn’t disappear behind the horizon, it seemed to just disappear in the sky around where i marked it.
