Reports Report 3638bj (Event 3638-2014)

Observer
Name Leo T
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks A couple of weeks ago, I saw a meteor trace similar to a photo of an Ursid event shown on your site. This particular meteor was much brighter (and appeared closer to the earth). At first I thought it might be a flare of some type, but not likely as it would have been in the flight line of the Manchester NH airport. It was very bright, and appeared to have some reddish/bluish tailings to it. Never saw anything like it.
