Name | Veronica B |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | I was looking at the full Wolf moon coming up through the trees to the east, northeast. The meteor passed in front of the moon and was whiter and brighter than the moon. It was about 1/16th the size of the moon that I was viewing which made me think it was very close. Very big and bright, teardrop shape, no long tail. I listened for noise but there was none. |
