| Name | Géza C |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | First sighted 1-1.5 degrees above Betelguse, at when it was about 1-2 magnitudes bright. It moved along the border of the Canis Maior and the Orion toward south-west. After 1 second it started to leave a train, then the brigthness of it changed with 5-6 magnitudes, it was brighter than the brightest Venus I have ever seen. The train itself was as bright as the Sirius. I lost sight of it when it was approximately 10 degrees high, due to natural obstacles, at when it was still about 0 magnitudes bright. |
