Name Jennifer J
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks I had just stepped out to look at the sky and did not get my telescope out last night. My cameras did not catch the Fireball/Meteor. It glowed so brightly and its tail seemed to have a smoky yet glowing type of tail. It reminded me of when I saw Haley’s Comet back in the 80s when I was young. So far, I have counted 8 states that have reported seeing this through FB. This is fascinating to me. I would love to be a part of researching this. Please contact me if there is a possibility I could donate my time. I have a Minor in Astronomy and am retired now.
