| Name | Joshua C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | There was a group of 4 of us that saw it. I posted about it on social media and had another individual that saw it. It really reminded me of the one that happened in Russia a year or two ago, just not as bright. It was the craziest thing I've ever seen, had my legs shake img thinking the world was about to end. It last for approximately 5 seconds and went from a normal size shooting star, to super wide where it looked like someone drawing a shooting star. I wish I could see it more often. |
