Reports Report 2351b (Event 2351-2016)

Observer
Name Olmo W
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks Have witnessed shooting stars and showers before. This was exceptionally bright and longlasting. Green/blueish with Orange tail I think. Nothing like I've ever seen before. My family van agree on this, on notification everyone looked up and we're still able to spot it. That's how long it lasted.
