Reports Report 4533g (Event 4533-2026)

Observer
Name Bob S
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks Wow. It was dang bright and LONG moving east to west only slightly moving down towards horizon south. Much more blue than the bright green I am used to but also not a deep navy blue. Like a Robin's egg. Flashing but maybe not intense fragmentation. Flashing time domain maybe like .75 seconds, 10 degrees spatially azimuthally. Not super long lasting trail of a minute or anything. Terminus was behind trees and I at least once saw a flash behind a tree around 20 deg in a circle tracking last seen area, indicating it continued for some time. I literally jumped up and down like a fool trying to get a few more instants of viewing due to my obstructions but it was fun and unmistakably a rare event. Like being flashed in the face with a bright blue flashlight.
