| Remarks | It was the first fireball i have ever seen that was a bright blue, to me it looked close and large, but it faded in seconds. Thought it was fireworks at first but the trajectory was off. I was in lima, ohio on Metcalf Rd. going toward shawnee by the water treatment plant, it was on the drivers side. Beautiful!!! Apprx: 11:38pm |
