Reports Report 10173it (Event 10173-2025)

Observer
Name Wendy P
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It scared me at first. It didn't look like any meteor shower I'd seen before that was high in the sky this was low, and coming in fast over the center of my town. There may have been a small bright burst before it dissipated but I wasn't able to photograph it because I was driving.
