| Remarks | Hi there! Just want to clarify that I happened To be trying to get to sleep in the back of my car, and I actually only say the reflection (very bright) of this bright meteor on the seats of my car, lifted my head up suddenly and could see nothing as it had already passed. I thought someone was shining a torch into the car, but I was on our farm and there was no one around. Not until I read about the meteor in the news did I realise what I saw last night, as it was the exact same time. So direction, and height above horizon are a guess, but it was definitely to the west of where I was. |
