Name
Thomas Y
Experience Level
3/5
Remarks
I was impressed by the low angle to the horizon and short trail of this bright fireball showing through the haze. These seemed to indicate to me that fireball must have been as far away as possible whilst still being visible, given its assumed high altitude.
