I jog early morning and regularly watch sky for stars and shooting stars. While the other shooting stars last few seconds. The meteorite I saw was unique as it was too bright and the whole sky lit up for much longer time. Also it just passed overhead with a long smoke trail which was visible for additional few more seconds.
