Reports Report 6873b (Event 6873-2022)

Observer
Name Patrick B
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It was the biggest shooting star or fireball or anything I’ve ever seen. I thought it was some kind of firework until my Brian caught up and realized it couldn’t be at that trajectory nor was there any sound. It was a really cool experience!
