Observer
NameKally A
Experience Level3/5
RemarksThe size of the meteor was BIG definitely not your shooting star. From when we first saw it it was smaller & red, moving FAST. The brightness & size intensified and the color was changing to a blue then white color. A tail was visible as well. The length of time we watch this and at the rapid speed was impressive. The object came in across Route 2 (we were headed East on Rt. 2 at 9:10PM EST) in Randolph headed down / towards the northern presidential range of the NH White Mountains. The sky was clear & crisp with great sky visibility. Kally Abrams :-)
