Observer
Name
Matthew I
Experience Level
2/5
Remarks
Best I have seen in the UK. I was out running. The meteorite came from behind over my head before it entered my field of view. Appeared low (close), relatively slow moving compared to those I have seen before and at a shallow angle towards the ground.
