Reports Report 8341a (Event 8341-2023)

Observer
Name A.K. B
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks I used to work at NASA and have seen many launches, etc. this is not like anything I’ve personally witnessed before. There was a singular meteor before this one and the same general vicinity but with a different trajectory before I was able to capture this one on video. There were no fireworks in the vicinity and in the video you can see an aircraft lower and closer to the horizon. The aircraft maintained its speed and direction as opposed to the meteor(s) which started out suddenly and then burned out not leaving an afterglow or trail. It was difficult to count the group but appeared to be 4-5 and lasted a few seconds.
