It must have been pretty high because there was no there was no Sonic Boom I kept waiting for that to happen but it was too far up to hit Earth so but it was a big one it's one of the biggest one I think it's the biggest one I've seen in my whole life and I'm 56 years old

Remarks
You can see the smoke from the glow of the burning up effect in the atmosphere whenever it lit up the brightest you can see the white smoke behind it so if there had been lights on the smoke the whole time I imagine you can still see the contrail the whole time it was going
Terminal flash
Observation
Yes
Remarks
It was burning up the whole time I'm like a normal falling star just kept changing at maybe half second intervals it would get brighter than brighter than brighter than like that
Fragmentation
Observation
Yes
Remarks
I kept waiting for the I kept waiting for the fragmentation to stop but it just kept going all the way across the sky I didn't see any visible chunks that went off from it but it just it was whatever it was was big enough to not burn up when it hit the atmosphere like a normal meteor
