Reports Report 1598e (Event 1598-2015)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Marcus D |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have a very strong feeling that it was green because of copper content, because the copper emission spectrum is around 510-530nm and I have experience with lasers of wavelengths similar, the fireball apeared to be around 510-520nm. I saw it very clearly, along with my German freind and mother. None of us were intoxicated and we all saw the same thing so I know it was reall. |
