I work mid-nights at the airport and have a vast view of the sky at night. I have seen two other fireballs either at work or going to work. The most recent other than this one being just two nights ago going to work at apprx. 2145 in the north Eastern sky. Another about a year ago around 430 AM traveling from South East and very bright with a long trailing tail, breaking up just before extinguishing
