Reports Report 1774a (Event 1774-2018)

Observer
Name Matthew B
Experience Level 5/5
Remarks No terminal flash but it did break up ending with several small streaks and Brighten at the end.... It had to be extremely bright because it was only about 20 minutes after sunset and the skies were still bright . I was looking up at arcturus on the phone with another astronomy friend of mine and he saw it in the city of Buchanan the same time as I did ....I also have another astronomy friend from Watervliet Michigan that also saw it he said it was to the southeast when he was taking the roof off his Dome preparing for a night of observation. Unfortunately I am not 100% certain on the time the error Factor would be plus or minus 6 minutes
