Alasdair T
Experience Level
3/5
Remarks
This was much brighter than a shooting star and appeared a lot larger and lasted longer and perhaps travelled slower but no idea how distant it was ( I have seen loads of shooting stars ) . It was dusk - before nightfall so must have been pretty bright to appear like that
