| Observer | |

| Name | Jacob P |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I googled chemicals that produce green flames and read a result stating the only known copper meteorite was the Eaton meteorite in may of 1931. What i saw may have been man-made space debris, but if it was a meteorite, i feel it is worth reporting to someone somewhere. My reported angles on the user interface were simply eyeballed. I saw it through the treeline from my house to the east-southeast, |
