Fragmentation
Observation	Yes
Remarks	saw bright object without noticeable extent moving fast and high almost horizontally in the sky, first thought it might be the ISS, (but far brighter than Venus, so no; made me look up from my computer), but then it broke up into same-sized (i.e. not noticeably bigger than stars appear) objects, maybe 3-5 such fragments, which almost immediately disappeared. I am inside sitting at my desk, and didn't hear anything.
