It seemed to move slower than what I typically observe with meteors but I can’t be sure because I have never seen something like what I observed last night. The photograph doesn’t do the phenomenon justice. It was a very bright orange trail that reminded me of a sparkler firework.

It almost sparkled. I couldn’t really see a defined ball at the front.
