| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Helen P |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I’d like to know if you think it is astronomical. Was as bright as a firework/flare but too high and too horizontal. Much larger, wider & lower than perseid shooting stars. Travelled horizontally, seemed more cloud level. There were clouds there but it was either below & something else, or above but bright enough to shine through |
