Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I've never seen a shooting star or fireball, comet, meteorite, in my life. It looked similar to a shooting star image, but not exactly. it had more width than what a shooting star looks like in images online, and it had more than 1 color in it light yellow and white, and very bright when moving. I was with my father in his car as a passenger. My father was driving and it was between 915-10pm. When my father first saw it, he immediately said "look at the shooting star!" He stated that he saw them before, and I believed what he said. My father is an Airforce veteran. We were driving south on straight path Wyandanch Long Island NY. We both saw this object start on an angle from the left of the sky and moved up and across and I thought it was unusual how it moved "across" than up on an angle to it's right. It moved likeva shooting star. It stayed on the left side of sky angle, and did not cross over the sky or in front of the car direction. we also noticed the lunar eclipse moon. We watched this shooting star/fireball in the left direction.
