| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | It was quite spectacular, I have been watching the skies for over 20 years as an amateur astronomer. and I have never seen anything like this in my life. I was just fortunate to be outside at the right time. I stood outside in silence to listen for a bang for about 10 minutes...sadly I heard nothing |
