| Observer | |

| Name | Nick P |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was with a group of 10 people that all witnessed this. It was the most significant event any of us have ever witnessed. It was curious and astonishing, and then exciting, and then a little scary because it just kept going and it was so bright and so fast and seemed so close, then it got back to exciting again after we all realized it was a meteor. Very intense and spectacular! |
