Reports Report 1775eg (Event 1775-2019)

Observer
Name jeffrey m
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks seemed to get bigger and brighter as it approached the horizon. Not sure if it was breaking up or if I was just focusing on it better in the final seconds. I've seen a night shuttle launch from cocoa beach and it seemed as bright bright and huge as the shuttle was when it was about 60 seconds high. Really big. I have seen many shooting stars but nothing close to this big.
