I've seen many meteorites over the years and this was the most profound. It looked like with the shallow angle and relatively slow movement that it may not have landed. I was able to observe it actually going away and continuing to glow like an orb, then I lost it beyond the mountain.

it lit up the atmosphere when I first saw it and produced a cone like bat wing effect in the sky that was huge 10-20 degrees. The atmospheric effect lasted for10-15 minutes, dissipating like a con trail
