Color
I remember seeing colour and for a split second wondered if an aircraft exploded in the sky. I think the tail was in the orange/red spectrum but I can't be sure...it all happened so fast.

Very difficult to remember enough to describe but there was a flash just as fireball dropped below a cloud. I think it was fiery in colour.
