Observer
NameCraig P
Experience Level1/5
RemarksI was driving a UPS truck at the time (diesel). If it made a sound I wouldn't have heard it. From the best I can determine from looking at Google and Apple Maps the section of road I was on; the direction direction I was traveling was nearly SW and Venus was maybe 7 degrees north of that angle and the fireball was about 6 to 8 degrees north of Venus; but not yet directly west the best I can figure.
