| Name | Nish A |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I almost thought it was some firework, but this potential meteor appeared out of nowhere and it was an isolated fireball. It was pretty bright and came straight down and burned before it could impact earth. In the end, it wasn't a continuous streak, it was almost like it twinkled like a star. There might be an explosion in the end which caused this twinkling effect. I was driving so I couldn't keep looking for trails and I didn't hear any sounds as my windows were closed.. |
