| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | M.C. F |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Extremely long track and fast: from nearly straight up all the way to the southern horizon. It had a comet like tail from a dispersed, burning core. Not as fast as previous fireballs that I have seen, but faster than, and different from a Vanderburg AFB launch that I saw. My dumb phone cannot upload the THREE photos that I took. Three photos, now that is a long track! |
