| Fragmentation | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | The object was throwing off flaming orange - yellow debris. I am not totally certain what the definition of fragmentation is. We were startled at the size of the object. Actually, some 10 minutes later, we saw another such object, smaller in size in the near opposite direction. |
