| Name | mitchell c |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | At first, I thought it may have been fireworks... I was driving, and the sky lit up for a split second. Then, it came falling, almost directly to earth, but with a slight angle to my right. I was facing SSW. It seemed to pulse, maybe 2-3 times. I'd assume this was the meteor breaking apart. Please send me updates. It was absolutely amazing. I wish I wasn't driving and actually out of my truck to see if I could hear anything. |
