| Name | Jess I |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This was totally at random and very scary. I only saw it because my dog woke me up with a sour tummy and needing to go outside. It was beautiful, and I thought I would hear a loud bang, but it was quiet as can be. No others were seen after this event. It was quite large compared to shooting stars I’ve seen on a starry night. Tonight is not particularly starry, though which made this stand out. |
