Reports Report 1609bn (Event 1609-2021)

Observer
Name Maureen Z
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I have never seen anything like this. Prior to the fireball entering my view, I saw a smaller bright light seemingly falling from the sky at approx 120 degrees. I initially laughed at myself and thought it must have been a reflection in the window from my spoon. Then suddenly the fireball appeared in my view. My phone was in the other room charging and I stood there watching as it moved across the sky afraid to leave. It was moving approx speed of a plane. Then I ran to get my phone to take a picture. It lit up the sky and lasted long enough to take thiese photos as it head out toward the eastern shore.
