This was the neatest thing I have ever seen in the sky! I just let the dog out and happened to look up. Hopefully I'm not the only one.

I spotted it just as it was ending so I am not sure what it looked like the entire time. Right before it disappeared it looked like a huge fireball (a third the size of the moon is my best guess) I did not see any fragmentation
