| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Lee B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I do not know exactly what I saw. I only know that I was looking for the green comet, so I was looking around Capella in the north sky. It was to the left of Capella. It looked like a planet but much brighter. So I thought it might be a plane - except it moved very fast, more like a meteor and lasted maybe a second or at most 2. Then all gone. |
