NaoPos Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Managed to observe it here in se pa/ delco for about 45 seconds. Was a red contour trail as it rose above the horizon/tree line.. Big flare, then a steady stream/incline... Then we thought it was out of sight, and then a 2nd flare up halfway though.... Then watched it for a few more seconds As it went into space and or the city light pollution! Def awesome to watch and worth the wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
