Reports Report 6206td (Event 6206-2024)

Observer
Name Matt L
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks A remarkably slow mover. Slower than a typical sandgrain streak. Crumbled into dozens of brilliant embers of electric blue and copper green with lots of ashy white dazzlers. Easily outshone the twilight dusk color of the cloudless sky. Best shooting star I have seen in my life. I haven't even seen this meteor type on video on the internet or recreated with CGI.
