| Remarks | Very thick, light blue train. My friend who was standing outside with me missed the meteor, but saw the glowing blue trail it left. It was very long. I don't understand the degree question above. Like, degrees radian? I'm guessing it took up a quarter of my field of vision. I (probably incorrectly) assumed it was close, because it was maybe 8x larger than any meteor I have ever seen. |
