Reports Report 2134d (Event 2134-2019)

Observer
Name Anthony L
Experience Level 5/5
Remarks My time frame is approximate because I did not stop what I was doing to check. Not quite what I'd consider a bolide, but a very bright slow moving meteor. We left the site at 11:30 so it was before that. I did not think it report worthy until I heard of the one that occurred later that evening at 12:45 AM.
