Observer
NameJean R
Experience Level2/5
RemarksI was looking at Venus and Jupiter in the western sky when I saw this fireball to my left. I was on a third floor balcony, so it was a little difficult to determine the height. It was very bright, and since it was lower in the horizon there were no stars visible. So it stood out.
