| Name | Brad G |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This was the most spectacular sighting I’ve had, and I just happened to be looking in the right direction while walking from my shed. Fortunately my nest video captured the meteor (and my reaction) and I’m happy to share the link if it helps. I’m just excited I got to see something that impressive, and would love to know if anyone else did. With all the light pollution on the street and moon light, it must have been bright! Please feel free to contact me! |
