| Name | Vickie C |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Never seen anything such as this, Have to admit first thing I thought was it was a missile, being shot across the sky. I have never thought much about astronomy but this has sparked my interest. Hoping to hear if this was something that possible fell onto the earth and can be located. Definite one of the most abrupt neatest things I have ever seen.As for the location that I have entered, it is slightly off as I could not get the map to complete exactly what I wanted it to since I was actually on a state Route located across the cornfield where I documented. |

| Remarks | I did not hear any sounds, yet as the fireball disappeared, It may have been a mere coincidence but my ears felt like they do when I am up in mountains or in a airplaine like they were clogged up and pressure, It has been 2 days and my right ear still feels like it has pressure and keeps crackling and popping, just like when I ride in a plane.
