| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Gerard W |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I can't imagine what this was except something entering the earth's atmosphere and burning up. It appeared to burn up completely as it became extinguished in the air. Very quick, very bright, a surprisingly steep angle of decent. Very surprising to be looking in the perfect place in the sky to see this! |
