Reports Report 3903af (Event 3903-2016)

Observer
Name Ronnie S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It was the brightest and largest meteorite I have ever seen that close to earth. It seemed to be just a few hundred feet above the trees. Truly amazing sight. It makes one realize just how vulnerable the earth is and how fast the life on earth could be completely destroyed in seconds. WOW!
