Remarks |
It happened so quick, it is hard to say... I was driving to work when a huge bright light suddenly appeared in the sky. I looked up just in time to see a very small, brief trail of light attached to a fire ball and then what looked like a small explosion, followed by nothing. One second it was there, the next it was gone. The initial trail may have been longer but it was very short by the time I noticed it. My first thought was someone must have been shooting off fireworks - the kind that arc and end in an explosion - only because it was situated so much lower in the sky than I had ever seen from a meteor. My next thought was perhaps a plane exploded but after further thought, I realized it\'s behavior was more meteor like than anything else. It was just so much brighter and lower on the horizon than any other meteor I had ever seen. In fact, it was rather large and I thought if a meteor was that big, this close to Earth, maybe I should be concerned... but then nothing else happened, so I just feel blessed to have been in a position to see it. Awesome! |
