Reports Report 5300d (Event 5300-2018)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Andrea B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I just happened to be on my front porch. We live in the country. It was hazy cloudy, and very dark out, and I noticed a bright light blue ball with a tail going from the west to the east. It was almost glowing through the clouds. Was amazing. I am not an experienced observer, but we enjoy looking at meteor showers. This was different than usual, and seemed very close. |
