It seemed smaller when we first saw it and got larger and brighter as it came over us. It seemed so low and so much closer and brighter than anything I’ve seen in the sky. Amazing!

Just before it flew over our house it fragmented. There was a flash of green and It split into two parts one part trailing behind the original. Both parts went over our house and went out of view, we were looking through the living room window.
