| Name | Jay M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I don't remember the exact angle it came down but it didn't go shooting across the sky, it was more straight up and down. I don't have any experience, only found your page tonight after seeing the fireball this weekend, but I saw two others in the southern sky earlier this summer. I wish I had found your page earlier. Next time I will get a photo, I almost had time as I was able to tell my friend about it and was annoyed that he didn't didn't turn his head to see it because it lasted a several seconds before the view was blocked by my neighbors house. |
