Remarks I’ve never seen a meteor like this. It was very round and big in the sky and so bright with distinct colour changes of blue and red. It was white at first and then changed to blue and red but I’m u sure what colour it went first in my adamant I can’t remember and then it went back to white and disappeared heading downwards with no lasting visible tail
