| Name | Clare K |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | At first I didn’t believe what I was seeing out of the corner of my eye. if i had turned faster i probably would have gotten a better view. couldn’t believe it was an astronomical event at first as it was so bright and large and colorful. but i knew immediately afterwards based on brevity of the event, lack of sound, and trajectory type since i have intentionally gone meteor-shower viewing a number of times during peaks. absolutely incredible. was sure to make a wish :) |
