Reports Report 2652m (Event 2652-2018)

Observer
Name Matt D
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This is the second one I have seen from that location within maybe 3 months although I have never seen anything like either event before. The previous one was much more impressive as it crossed the entire horizon without terminating and moved faster although it was brighter. I will fill an additional sighting out for the previous one, but can only guess at the time by +/- 1 month
