Reports Report 3137f (Event 3137-2015)

Observer
Name Kathleen M
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks At first I thought it was an airplane low in the flight path of the local airport. As I observed it I realized it must be a meteor, but it was substantially larger than the meteors I had seen during the shower this past august. It seemed very large to me, and I exclaimed aloud in my car. I would be very interested to know more about this if information becomes available! Kathleen McGloin Student Nurse Rhode Island College
