Reports Report 6733d (Event 6733-2024)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | PEGGY A |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was inside my house on the top floor, at my computer (screen was on). I was not expecting to see a meteor and don't think I've ever seen one before. It was not just a shooting star, because there was a fireball just before became dark. The elevation of my position was 220 feet (per my iphone). My line of sight was 68 degrees east (per my iphone). I would say the angle of sight from where I was sitting was 0 (straight out and just above the trees on my property) |
