Reports Report 1798b (Event 1798-2023)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Eri X |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | The moon wasn't enough bright to highlight some features like the smoke after it disappeared, but the tail was long enough (at least 20 degrees), blue color, and the head orange, i also noticed a drop in luminosity during the fall, probably due to the clouds that were present between me and the meteor, probably some medium high altitude clouds. The whole event lasted probably slightly more than 2 seconds, with little unnoticeable bright flash at the end (difficult to remember correctly). The meteor appeared to fall almost perpendicular, starting from almost 40 degrees from the horizon (sure less, but not much more) almost hitting 10 degrees from the latter. |
