Reports Report 354f (Event 354-2026)

Observer
Name Kate P
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks My daughter also saw this - we've gone out to watch many meteor showers over the years but whatever this was was so much larger, more orange in colour than the usual white and you could almost see the ball head with a tail, rather than more like a streak of light. It disappeared behind the mountain for us, hence the final point when we saw it may not have been the final point others saw it - we were driving along a road that is down in the valley which impacted where our horizon line would have been.
