Reports Report 6225b (Event 6225-2025)

Observer
Name Billy B
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This was definitely not an airplane or other aerial vehicle it moved quickly accross the sky but not like a shooting star, slower. There were planes in the air between me and the fireball and this was not an airplane. It's very dark in the sky this morning and it was easy to see it cross the sky towards the mountains in a southwest to northeast direction. Maybe closer to a south to north direction.
