Reports Report 9495b (Event 9495-2025)

Observer
Name Lindsey R
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This was seen as I was looking over downtown Vancouver, WA. There is a lot of air traffic in this area but I lived in rural Maine and rural Alaska for a combined 35 years and am familiar with what a shooting star looks like as I would see many while driving or skiing under dark, unpolluted skies.
