| Remarks | Event #6310-202? the object flew in an irregular, nonlinear fashion as it entered my view. Somewhat skipped or stuttered a bit in the first second or two. Started as bright red to orange. Glowing brightly & dropping 'sparks' behind it in its tail. Finished in a bright yellow that went very green as it burnt out. A trail of green sparks followed through for another second plus. Seemed to last 6-9 seconds. Here is a video of part of it captured in Weirton, WV of the same event. https://www.facebook.com/1782685854/videos/282757630174778/ |
