Reports Report 2925la (Event 2925-2017)

Observer
Name Robert Y
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It seemed to be very big in size very bright glow. Maybe the air condition of no humidity played a part to keep it intact to be very visible versus normal streaks of a star with only the color giving its distinct abilitiy to know differance between star or meteor. Very Slow and Visible moving identifyable meteor. Amazing experience
