Remarks I just waked out side in my backyard, i looked up and saw this huge ball of fire streaking across the sky. my wife was in our bed room and our window faced the direction that i saw this. I knock on the window to show my wife and she said it was very big. as i took a picture of it then it burnt out. I have seen thing like this before, but nothing as big as this one was and to see the fire from it was amazing. still in awe of this.
