I wanted to add a small comment. I figured I would wish on it since it was a shooting star, so i wished I could see it again.. Hopefully one day. It was by far the best experience I've had stargazing and I dont think I'll ever have anything top it.

Remarks
It was the brightest most vivid color blue I've ever seen and it stayed in the sky for about 30 seconds after the fragment disintegrated. The train seemed to be painted across the entire sky and I literally think it would have fell on my head if it didn't burn up. There is no way I wasn't the closest person on the planet to this at that point in time. Also, where it was said to end up at I disagree with. It was 100% Medina county. It had to be just miles above my head. It was an amazing experience and i'll never forget it...
