Observer Name Margaret H Experience Level 3/5 Remarks The color was striking; there was a brightly glowing head with a long misty tail. Moved much more slowly than "shooting stars"; saw it initially above the star or planet in NW sky; was quite bright because it was very clear with bright full moon.
