| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Allanah W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This occurred exactly at 02:40am uk time above the Halifax area, while looking sitting at the window on a very hot night. The sky was dark and could not have been mistaken for something else, it was a lone fireball type shooting star! It felt very close and intrigued me it was so close, this intrigued me so much I have tried to but cannot find any evidence of this shoring star anywhere at this time hence reporting for further investigation. Thank you. |
