Remarks | When I first saw it I thought it was a shooting star that would burn up quick in atmosphere but it came close coming from the west going east over head. I could see it very well for 10 seconds or more. The fireball glowed bright blue, white and greenish yellow like the train. The train stayed the same length and flickered bright blue, white and greenish yellow, as I watched it the whole time until it went out of my site to the east. |
