Remarks It was an orange like glowing train. It broke up in two, first streak being longed than the second one. Maybe whatever it was had broken apart and that’s why I saw two different streaks sharing the same exact trail. Lastly it disappeared. It lasted than 2 seconds. Something I’ve never seen before. Spooky but spectacular at the same time.
