Name | Ethan S |
Experience Level | 4/5 |
Remarks | When I got out of neighbors house with my mom, I saw a small flashing light appear and then was diving into the planet and I screamed to my neighbor and mom "Look A Meteor". and it was fading away and heard an indistinct sound of a boom from far away. Unfortunately, there was no photo or video footage because I did not know about this event but all 3 of us were surprised about that meteor passing through our neighborhood. |
