| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Dakota W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Am not entirely sure it was a meteor, but it was bright enough to see very easily, even with the city's light pollution. The only thing larger or brighter that I've seen in the night sky would be a full moon, and this moved much like the meteors I see in August. |
