Reports Report 3049by (Event 3049-2025)

Observer
Name Robert P
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks Event was also witnessed by my passenger, who noticed it higher in the sky before I did. It almost looked like a plane at first, before brightening significantly to a brilliant green flare, then going dark just before it would have been level with the horizon. Definitely in the top three fireballs I've ever seen in real life!
