Remarks | The object was bluish, for a second, then green to white before it disappeared. It had a yellowish trail and towards the end of the display some fragments came off of the main object in white-ish color. I thought it could be a shooting star, but it was extremely bright and the colors were amazing, and I was thinking it seemed very bright, going really fast and I was thinking it was going to touch ground. I couldn't find anything in the news or online about this, except here. |
