Remarks |
This was the brightest and largest meteorite I have ever seen. I am questioning whether it was indeed a meteorite because it was so bright, and had 3 colors (green and green but a white tail and white head). I was sitting reading on my computer in a dark room facing my backyard. Shortly before the meteorite, I noticed that there was not much moonlight from the full moon in my backyard. I remembered thinking that's odd on a clear night, but it might be because my eyes were accustomed to the bright computer screen. Then something caught my eye -- the fireball passing across the sky. I was absolutely amazed. I've seen several meteorites in my life, but nothing like this. It was as bright as the one in Russia last year, but not orange -- it was blue and green with a white tail and head. I would have thought it was a firecracker, but there was no sound. Very exciting! |
