| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Karim E |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | This was the evening of the Saturn and Jupiter Conjunction, perfect skies, no clouds, and I was out about 30 minutes earlier setting up my camera and just started seeing stars looking up when I saw the fireball. Unfortunately, my camera was aimed at Jupiter and Saturn so I didn't get a picture. |
