| Remarks | It just appeared coming out of the sky. I was afraid because it was so close that I can see the different color lights in the ball and trail. It disappeared quick. I went to see where it went by running towards the back of my apartment, but we are in NYC, so who knows maybe the water. I honestly thought I was losing my mind until I saw online that others saw it too. |
