Reports Report 3922c (Event 3922-2019)

Observer
Name Alicia R
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It was the largest, brightest, and most colorful "shooting star" I have ever seen in my life. I am a photographer and have caught photos of shooting stars during meteor showers many times laying out all night and setting up my camera to shoot all night. This was incredible! I can only imagine it being a fireball. I hope others got to see it as well.
