Reports Report 345g (Event 345-2019)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Travis B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving home from the grocery store (I shop in the middle of the night to avoid crowds) when I saw it. My location on Egret is an estimation but it was in that general area. The fireball was most definitely a very vibrant green, and I would best describe it as looking like when you see a large firework being launched in to the air during a fireworks show, only in reverse as this was flying down towards the Earth. |
