Reports Report 2165ac (Event 2165-2014)

Observer
Name Dona E
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This was a large light blue/white oval fireball teardrop in shape that went from my left to right while I was facing the western sky. I live out in the country, farmland, so not too many other lights around. This was very different from falling stars or other meteor showers I have ever seen before. I tried to be as accurate as possible in my angles and degrees of vision. Hope this information helps. I will definitely be looking again tomorrow evening to see if it is a reoccurring event. What a treat to see on this beautiful clear September 13, 2014 night.
