Reports Report 1626ae (Event 1626-2012)

Observer
Name Dave T
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It was bright enough that despite being inside in a well-lit room, my wife and I both spotted the fireball almost as soon as it became visible in our window. Because we observed it through a window, it may be been visible for much longer than what I stated and may have also been brighter.
