Reports Report 906b (Event 906-2021)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Sheila V |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I have never seen this before. I was driving in a rural, dark area, with no one around. It is cold outside (-20c) First, I thought it was in the sky closer to me, like a fire cracker shooting over the road, which would be very odd given the temperature and location, then I saw the bright fireball very clearly and it seemed much further in the distance. |
