Reports Report 3609a (Event 3609-2023)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Daine M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It was definitely brighter than a typical shooting star and appeared to linger slightly longer than most as well. It was bright enough that I originally thought it was a firework, but being in a state park, was unlikely. We could see the heat/fire surrounding the object in front of it, as well as it appeared to pulse slightly, quickly change intensity as it hitting different portions of atmosphere. |
