Reports Report 7920a (Event 7920-2024)

Observer
Name David W
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks What I remember most is the orangish yellow color pausing for a brief second and then about 10° to the South it appeared once again on the same trajectory South so I'm assuming the same piece of debris was causing it
