| Name | Maggie K |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | To try to pinpoint the location, I used adjacent stars. To the NE of Vega and SE of Deneb. From where I was viewing the location was in the area of kappa Cygnus. I was actually facing east when it popped through the sky. Blind in my left eye, I was still able to see it and turn in time to catch the brightest moment. Was in awe of the subsequent trail |
