Observer
Name Peter L
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks Security camera video, looking Northwest from Winnipeg. The sky was partly cloudy, and there was some Northern Light activity around the same time, giving the sky a bit of a light green glow. This meteor was spotted and reported by Noƫlle V of Winnipeg, which allowed me to find the meteor on a video recording. Also visible in the frame is the star Capella of the constellation Auriga. The video is cropped to 1080p and is at 10fps
