| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I have seen 2 fireballs before and many shooting stars. This one did not have the long trail like the other fireball I have seen, but I think it may have been the angle I saw it at. At first thought nothing of it and thought maybe just regular shooting star but after hearing reports of a fireball confirmed in Texas, I may have seen a glimpse of it. It was definitely way brighter and lasted longer than average shooting star, and moved slower across the sky than the falling stars I've seen. Which made me think it was something different after hearing other reports in Texas. Wanted to report it for data purposes if it was actually a glimpse of the fireball that was confirmed |
