Reports Report 1307a (Event 1307-2016)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Lars L |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The time I mentioned is probably way off. Could be anytime between 21:30 and 23:45. Was walking the dog without a watch plus I am on vacation, so no routine times... Also the angle portion of the questionnaire was confusing to me. The meteor/fireball pretty much headed from north to south, pretty high above the horizon. It looked like a bright and long lived shooting star, and almost seemed to "sparkle" like a sparkler. |
