| Name | andrea H |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I saw quite a few falling stars in the past but thid was quite different. It was a hige fireball, something like 20% of the size of the Moon. White color, but I had the impression the color was not uniform. It had a scattered trail of bright particles. I was looking straight West towards the 3-stories building in front of me and saw the fireball appearing from above towards the right and disappearing behind the building towards the left |
