Remarks
I have seen the average slim streak of a shooting star high in the sky.
What i saw last night was not something I'd ever seen before.
It was huge compared to a shooting star and low in the sky. I saw it through the tops of the tree line as i happened to glance out our large picture window. It was pure chance
