Reports Report 678bn (Event 678-2021)

Observer
Name Nathan B
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This was the brightest/longest shooting star I’ve ever seen. It came almost straight down, had a tint of green to it and made me say out loud (to myself), “whoa, wow!” - I almost thought I’d hear a boom it looked so close and was headed for the ground.
