I believe that not many people saw the one I did. Most of the sound reports were before 10:00pm. I saw this at approx 10:20-10:25pm. Very close to the atmosphere. Traveled in a NNE direction. It caught my attention by lighting up the sky. Was on my back deck looking st the stars. I was in the right place at the right time. Jaw dropping experience.
