| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Patricia M |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I had been looking skyward all evening because I was taking pictures of the moon. The fireball I witnessed dropped into the atmosphere as a bright white ball, then got brighter, burning bright green as it passed through it, at the trejectory I previously reported. It then ( according to its angle) must have burnt up when it was on the horizon, and just out of view, because I saw a big flash. |
