Reports Report 5052ab (Event 5052-2026)

Observer
Name Lori L
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks I know what a meteor is and this was definitely a meteor. Just in case I got my slating sliding scale wrong I was looking up my back door through the window looking northeast it started half point in the middle of the sky, and then it came to a gradual climb to the ground. It was absolutely beautiful and it’s a shame I couldn’t get a picture of it, but I thought this information might be helpful.
