This bolide lit up the surrounding sky in the same fashion as the Bangkok bolide I found online. Please reference that film from what I understand was from 2015. I would be amazed if this was not seen by others looking at the local sky. Although fast in duration, the aqua blue light was spectacular and momentarily frightening until dissipation. What a thrill.
