Reports Report 877a (Event 877-2017)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Debra P |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I know very few constellations, but since we put in a hot tub in October last year, we watch for meteors during known shower dates, and I've seen over a dozen since that time. I'm a serious meteor shower person. |

| Fragmentation | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | I saw a much smaller meteor type object go past a few minutes later while facing the opposite direction with, again, more of an orange color to it than yellow, and fragmentation rather than a shooting star type streak (we see a lot of shooting stars from the hot tub!). It came from the same general direction, almost south to north. |
