| Persistent train | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Duration | 0.5s |
| Length | 10° |
| Remarks | It was glowing for a very long time, when it was still burning, the trail was way linger than 10 degrees, maybe 30. But when it went out, the trail was shorter. The streak lasted a really long time though. |
| Terminal flash | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | Two flashes, a smaller one and then a very large burst before it fizzled out, it burned bright red and white a bit. I think the first flash caused fragmentation, maybe the second too but I couldnt see very much after the light burned out on the second flash. |
