Reports Report 5604f (Event 5604-2020)

Observer
Name Victor L
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I thought it was an airplane while still behind trees until it cleared trees and we saw the orange tail. It was very slow moving for a shooting star as it lasted over 30 seconds. My son and I were up in our roof star gazing and looking for shooting stars. We did shoot a few second video, but it was very low quality. Most awesome experience in a long time.
