| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Spencer S |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It was very large, with its widest part taking up most of the night sky in my view. Very bright white at the center with red and blue on the sides that trailed (maybe fragmentation?). The tail was long enough (but not thin) that the meteor stretched almost into my peripheral on the left looking at it dead on. |
