Reports Report 4793f (Event 4793-2025)

Observer
Name Amanda D
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I've seen shooting stars before, always pinhead thin and quick. This was much thicker, brighter, and lasted a few seconds instead of a blink. Unfortunately I didn't see the end of it, as it went behind the house from where I was viewing from.
