| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | As it appeared to be very close to the low horizon line and streaked across the sky just a few hundred yards away I am quite surprised that I did not hear it. Upon walking outside there was no contrail remaining due to a slight breeze. Upon further inspection in the morning, there was no observable impact. However given its angle of approach and speed, it most likely impacted at least a quarter or less away where there are trees in the area. This was the first time I have scene a fireball this close before. Being a science teacher makes it all the more exciting for me! |
