Reports Report 2771a (Event 2771-2021)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Paul R S |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | My room faces south. I was sitting near the window. It came into view at about 60 degrees elevation, travelling in a southerly direction. It's brightness caught my eye. I thought momentarily that it was a firework rocket but immediately realised that it wasn't. It went out of view behind the roof of the bungalow south of my position. I recorder the time and colour but failed to log the date. It was two days before the Winchcombe meteor, so I have dated it as 26 Feb 2021 retrospectively |
