Reports Report 588a (Event 588-2013)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Janet D |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | Please note in Hawaii at 6:15 a.m. it is not dark so this is considered a early day event, so I was surprised by how bright it was when viewed ( a flash caught my attention and then I saw it ). Everyone here thinks I saw the HST or ISS. No, it was a bolide or debris as I could see a couple of pieces break off as it shot down. |
