Observation Unknown
Remarks I saw the trail across the sky, then I saw it start to break up.. I guess, because it had falling white particles off it as it fell. Finally it it disappeared and some particles were still falling, I do not recall seeing a flash, nor did it look like it was hitting ground. It was remarkably bright though, I\'ve never seen anything like it before.
Fragmentation
Observation Yes
