Remarks | The night sky was clear. I observed the entire event from start to finish. The event began with a streak of bright white, then grew into a larger yellow, then orange glow as it arched, and then burst into a massive neon green ball-shaped form. The fireball disappeared far above the agriculture fields over southern New Mexico. |
