Observer
Name Cole G
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I felt that the object was very close to me, and I saw much of the spectacular break up in great detail. Words cannot adequately describe the experience I had viewing this object. I have seen many videos online of the object, but none seem to be as close to it as I was.

Terminal flash
Observation Yes
Remarks The object initially flashed a very bright green over the road and near the fields I was driving through. After about another .5 or 1 second, it flashed again but this time with much less intensity.
Fragmentation
Observation Yes
Remarks After the second, less intense flash, many flaming particles began to fly off of the object. These fragmentations initially started as a green color like the rest of the object, but quickly turned into orange before flaming out. The object continued to cruise along the sky before breaking up/ extinguishing.
