Reports Report 3418bf (Event 3418-2024)

Observer
Name Rachel H
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks In the moment, I thought what I was observing was much closer to where I was than it probably actually was. It was in the sky just above some trees when I saw it and it was going down. I was even tempted to investigate to see if something landed on the ground nearby, but didn’t.
