Name | Nancy C |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | The body was large and green, round in front but jagged white in back, but had no trail or after image. The angle was low. It disappeared behind buildings. There *may* or may not have been a flash. I am in the city and it is friday night, so pretty noisy out. The fireball was heading southwest. I was sitting in aparked car facing west when I sawit in the corner of my eye and looked up. I have never seen anything like this, and I have seen meteor showers before. It also did not look like a flare or fireworks (angle and trajectory wrong) |
