I was on the phone and in absolute shock! It was amazing and I wish I got a video of it. Please email me if you know what I saw or hear of other reports! My students would find it cool. Thank you!!

It came out of no where out my car window right above the trees and was incredibly bright and big. I knew it was a shooting star but then felt like it was something more special so I started looking up pictures. I’m a physics teacher. It was beautiful!
