Name | Chris M |
Experience Level | 4/5 |
Remarks | I was looking in the direction of Andromeda when I saw the meteor - I first saw it in the direction of Perseus and it continued through Cassiopeia to Cepheus when it disappeared (likely a Taurid), taking around 2s. A train was visible, but not persistent after the fireball disappeared. I may not have used the angle estimation tool correctly, since the meteor passed near the zenith - it began near the zenith, in the southern part of the sky and moved to the north. |
