| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | When it first appeared out of know where with a big circular rediculously bright flash then what felt like 3 seconds later, a loud bang. At first I thought it was a firework but then quickly realised as it shot off at mach speed and slowly over 3.5 ish seconds diminished in brightness and quickly faded away leaving a trail of smoke which dissipated within seconds. I felt truly privileged to have witnessed it. I'm somewhat of a fanatic and have seen lots of shooting stars but none close to the magnitude, size or brightness of tonight! Please update me on any confirmed sightings. |
