Remarks The trail was all i saw, i must have just missed the actual object coming in. But the trail came down straight from space. At first i thought it was a contrail from a plane then i noticed whatever left it must have been coming down from above as it looks to have fizzled relatively low to the ground near my house. I cant tell if thats close or not really, but it definitely fizzled out in my area. It was basically horizontal from the fizzle point to the sky to the right when i saw it first, then it moved about the speed of a minute hand but counter clockwise and within 5 minutes it was pointing all the aay left.the video is from about halfway through that when it was basically vertical overhead and i could clearly see it came from something in space that entered our atmosphere.
