Reports Report 423z (Event 423-2023)

Observer
Name Paul S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I’ve seen meteor showers and shooting stars before but these are usually in the northern sky, high-speed and bright white. This was much bigger, orange in colour with a long tail and as I faced west travelled from south to north much lower in the night sky.
