I’ve seen a couple meteors shooting through the sky before, but what I think what I just saw was a once in a lifetime occurrence. I was immediately filled with excitement when I saw that!

I thought I witnessed a plane explode. But there was this trail of what looked like fire. It almost looked like there was a concentrated beam of light in the center and the outer parts of the explosion just looked like chaos and fire.
