I don't recall being asked about the approximate size but it was much larger than a typical shooting star. Easily 4 or 5 times the size maybe more. Please feel free to contact with any further questions. This was a wild experience and until I stumbled upon this website I had written off the sighting as a large bottle-rocket style firework with no explosion. Glad to know it might be something much more interesting.
