| Remarks | Massive white fireball, with long flaming trail. Traveling from East to West. Mid to low height in the sky as I stepped out of the building and looked up in the direction of South. Lasted about 3 seconds before it disappeared over the horizon to the West. I've never seen anything like that! No sonic crack, or impact sound. |
