Reports Report 797s (Event 797-2018)

Observer
Name Rebecca H
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks It was bright green, then faded to light yellow almost white then bright green again as it exited our field of vision (2 pulses). Was like no other shooting star I have seen and I keep my eye out for them while enjoying the outdoors. The head was longer/flatter. My 12 yr son thought it was a firework... I don't agree. Was too high and streaking differently
