Reports Report 9579ajd (Event 9579-2022)

Observer
Name Scott I
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was outdoors a few miles from my home and observed the fireball in real time so I was able to see the color and fragmentation. I checked my Nest camera and it picked up the event and that video is attached. I also reported another fireball 2 years ago so the camera is in the same position as it was for Report 5441lo (Event 5441-2020)
