| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | We were up on a lookout, a couple thousand feet above the desert floor watching a raven fly. It was a bright, sunny day and all of a sudden this thing comes flying down. It was much too high and fast too be a flare. I have never seen a meteor that low, coming at that angle, and trailing red along with white! |
