Remarks | I noticed the fireball through the moon roof in our car heading to work. It was so bright and could see it for at least a few miles after it had passed over us, and had a glowing trail that lasted only a few seconds. Went right over the top of us on the freeway, and came from the south east, past over us and headed northwest. It looked like it eventually burned out, but was so strange, as you could still see a little dot traveling in the sky, like it was a rock that kept moving north in the sky, and that was after it has passed us at least a couple miles. |
