| Name | Toni K |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It was amazing as we saw it in a park with distant views of Vancouver, it looked like it landed either in West Vancouver or in the Salish Sea. Both my husband and I saw it and it was the most spectacular meteorite/fireball I have ever seen. It was also a near full moon and the night sky was bright and this was so bright, not blinding light like the sun. It was also very noisy from nearby traffic, so we didn’t hear if there was any sound from the fireball but I would have assumed there would have been. It seemed close. |
