Reports Report 2529m (Event 2529-2014)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Matt D |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I only saw the meteor for 3-4 seconds, because I had turned a corner which then put it into view for me, so I didn't see exactly where the meteor had originated from, but it was moving either toward a S or SE direction. It was bright orange and from my perspective, gave the appearance of being 1/2 mile to 2 miles away from me. After 3-4 seconds, the meteor completely burned up because no more brightness was to be seen and I saw nothing after that. There was no obstruction to my view at this point, so the burning certainly stopped at that point in time. |
