Observer
Name Zeus M
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks The fireball or w.e. My nephew and I saw was extremely bright, came and went as we looked up to see it, looked very very close. It seem close enough that at one point we waited for an impact. We thought it was a firework with how bright it was, even a flare yet it just vanished without a trace in meer seconds. Time was also between 10:20-10:30 pm we were just walking around the park. Also it had a curving trajectory coming down. It gave my nephew and I goosebumps, so I’m hoping you guys can have some type of answer. I hope what we saw was the real deal, hear from you guys soon, any question please reach out
