| Name | Laura H |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It lasted long enough for me to point up and for 3 other people to turn around and see it. It was larger, brighter, has color that changed which was very different from the normal shooting stars I see normally. Also the angle was almost straight down instead of arching across the sky |
