Name | James H |
Experience Level | 4/5 |
Remarks | seemed very large and very close however I never heard any sound, I've observed many meteor showers in various locations and seen a few rogue meteorites but this was the most significant I've seen, about 1/4 of the size of the chelyabinsk incident from my point of view |
