Reports Report 4589bx (Event 4589-2024)

Observer
Name Jason A
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I thought it was a rogue firework until I started hearing reports of a meteor. As it moved right to left, it flashed twice in rapid succession and then was gone. I think that I may have seen some smoke but I'm not sure. My time is not accurate. I do know that it was after 6am but I do not know the exact minute. This is among the coolest things I have seen in on 54 years on the planet.
