This looked like an object of massive size falling to earth and I expected to see it land a few hundred yards from my view. It had a major white/blue ball in front followed by a wide orangish tail that seemed to be attached to it! Amazing!

I was inside and saw it out my window for just the final segment of the trajectory. I thought someone was shooting a firework over my residence! It was massive! I spend a lot of time outside camping and stargazing. This was a first!
