Reports Report 1299h (Event 1299-2014)

Observer
Name Jack U
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks The light blue fireball left a trail of orange sparks. There was a slight curve to the downward arc. At first I thought it might be a firework but upon reflection, I'm fairly certain it was a meteorite. A nearby tree blocked the final view of the lowest point of the arc. The total sight seemed long - like 4-5 seconds.
