Reports Report 3296g (Event 3296-2023)

Observer
Name Steve C
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks We were on a patio at a party and another person facing the same direction saw the same thing. We assumed in was a large firework coming down until we saw it disappear behind the Catalina Mountains which are more than five miles away, so we realized it was much larger and further away than any possible fireworks.
