Reports Report 10285al (Event 10285-2025)

Observer
Name Louise J
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It arched across the sky from left to right - so bright like the colours of the northern lights - like a firework. I was with my partner travelling along Ditchford Lane. Bright ball flying through the sky leaving a luminous green arch trail - as it travelled through the sky around the ball it developed a purple pink haze around the burning green. Only after talking to friends and googling it have we realised it was a fireball and I was advised to report it. Honestly was the most amazing thing!
