| Name | Julie L |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It came from north west to south east ( from where I was at) I don’t know if it made any sound cause I was mowing and just happened to look up and saw this amazing site that only lasted a few seconds, but I will never forget 😁 I’ve saw shooting stars before, but nothing during the day. From my point of view and distance away, I can only compare the size to roughly a basketball ( size of the burst) |
