| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Yang C |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I saw a shooting star before. This time, it seems bigger than a shooting star, but honestly, I cannot tell whether it is a fireball, or shooting star, or maybe it's something else. I thought that I would just report what I saw. Hopefully it is a really fireball or shooting star (if so, I am really lucky!). |
