|---|---|
| Name | Timothy B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | This was a unique viewing experience. I did not immediately recognize it as a meteor because of its brightness and color. It reminded me of a firework display, but it was silent and did not fragment, seeming to burn out only a few hundred feet from the ground |
