Reports Report 4551a (Event 4551-2026)

| Name | Robert C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It was a bright, odd patter of cloud in the sky, but I did not see it move, flash, or change colour, and neither did a hear any boom. It looked like there was a dark speck a bit lower, but I'm not sure if I captured it in the picture. The sun was casting light on the trail, so maybe that's why it was unusually bright as the sun was covered by clouds and was a bit higher than the trail. I'm not entirely sure if this was a fireball. I had my phone use the image search feature, which pulls up the Google AI assistant and said it could have been a fireball trail, and recommended sending it in to you. Hopefully this is helpful, and not a waste of your time. Thank you. |
