Reports Report 2879b (Event 2879-2015)

Observer
Name Dan F
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks At the time I saw this, I was looking at the moon and noticed it start above the moon, passing directly in front of the moon. It had a large fiery trail behind it, but left no lingering smoke trail. There were some clouds and it was bright enough to see as it passed behind the clouds.
