Observer
Name Stan S
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks The moon was not up yet. I was walking a mountain road slowly by starlight. When it happened, it was a complete surprise and I thought a jeep had flipped on off-road lights. Trees and mountains became visible. Then I saw the meteor to the right and turned toward it.
