| Name | Rob F |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Two of us witnessed it, it lasted long enough for me to call the other observer attention to it... it was a very slow moving sparkly meteor almost like a firework desending, except you could tell by the movement, distance, altitude and size it wasn't. |
