Name | Lisa C |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | I've seen fireballs and meteor showers all my life. My last fireball sighting was about 4 years ago, in East Texas ( near Magnolia/Tod Mission), and there were about 15 eye witnesses. We were camping in the Fall and saw maybe 8 slow moving fireballs over the course of 2 hours. They looked like giant rectangles as they moved across the sky. Some almost looked as if they could touch the tops of the giant pine trees! |
