| Name | jay(John) H |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | This object was larger than anything I have seen before. It was moving much slower than other meteorites I have seen, appeared to be flaming, and had a tail somewhat like a comet. It moved roughly from east to west, and I wondered if it might land in Cape Cod Bay. It appeared to be a ball. I've been wondering if it could have been space junk. Again, I've never seen anything like it before except in movies or television. Irrelevant comment: Two weird events here in 2 days, tornadoes and a fireball! |
