| Name | Ken S |
| Experience Level | 5/5 |
| Remarks | I saw the meteor through my house window while I was looking to the SE (~150 degree true heading). I estimate that it covered about 15 degrees of sky directed mostly toward the horizon. It brightened substantially during travel, but there was no terminal flash. It had a red-orange color. Initially, I made a report using your app on my android phone, but when I clicked submit a screen message indicated that the app failed. |
