Reports Report 6774a (Event 6774-2023)

Observer
Name Jonathan M
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks There were quite a few people in my group watching it. Have seen many shooting stars but this was something that felt much closer and bigger and it was in daylight. It did burn out like a shooting star but it felt like maybe it didn’t .Just thought share the info as this came up when I googled ‘meteor over Scotland today’.
