| Observer | |

| Name | Catherine P |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | I am used to seeing meteors as I spend a lot of time captureing the aurora & night skies, this was brighter, bigger & seemed much closer than anything I have seen before ( including the big one I captured on camera over Kentallen 4th Sep 22 which was a biggy!, photo submitted at the time of that one, sadly I was driving when this one occurred so no chance of an image ) |
