Reports Report 8076c (Event 8076-2023)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Donald R |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Went outside to have a smoke. The usual. Just looking up and BAM, this meteor or fireball appeared, it had a blue-green color and sparkling trails . I was waiting for impact. The odds of me seeing this for the half second it appeared is astonomical. I have seen a Pending Report #329805 from Virginia that may be of the same sighting because it was approximately the same time and date. This website is new to me so I might not have all the data correct. But, this is a really cool site. Donald Roskowski. |
