| Remarks | I’ve seen many shooting stars, but this one was different. It resembled a shooting star, my brain didn’t recognize what I was looking at until it was gone. It was one of the most beautiful thing’s I have ever seen. |

| Remarks | It appeared out of no where and looked like a huge ball in the sky, at first i thought it was a transformer that blew, but it moved too fast for that, it moved like a shooting star, on the tail end it looked like 50 - 75 separate peaces — maybe the last 20% of it was broken up into long oval-ish shapes tailing the ball of fire. |
