| Name | Alexander M |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | About a minute 7:01 after I thought I heard a faint sonic boom, but then heard a couple of others. Decided those were noise from Halloween fireworks. But the fireball was streaking straight across the sky, est. 20 degrees N, unlike a firework, which is vertical. |
