Nicholas G
Experience Level
2/5
Remarks
This was sighted in Manhattan near the Hudson River so while I had and open view of the sky, the horizon was blocked by buildings. Also a second after the fireball went out of my sight I could see a faint dome of the same white light as the fireball in the trajectory.
