This meteor was like a firework as it lit up the entire sky. My friends and I were sitting around a camp fire and the night was dark as it could be and all of a sudden we could see everything clear as day and we looked into the sky and there was a blue ball shooting through the air with a blue/white streak extending far behind it for some time.
