Terminal flash
Observation Yes
Remarks It went straight over head with a fairly bright tail and then I saw a flash and it split apart with what looked like a larger fragment continuing on the same (ish) trajectory, and then other pieces sort of 'showering' off. After the initial 'explosion', it had all disappeared within a second.
