Reports Report 3283kx (Event 3283-2023)

Observer
Name Catherine F
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It was so bright that it felt like we were in a flash of light for the few seconds it lasted (we could not help but turn immediately to the sky). It was a blast of different colors, it felt so « close » that we thought of a single firework which did not make sense (no sound, no other blasts or lights, too high for a firework, classic meteor curve). Very impressive.
