| Remarks | My friend Sherri was with me in the driveway when we saw it. We both wonder if it may have been a piece of something man-made due to it's unusual shape and massive shedding of sparks towards the end? It looked huge, considering how well we could see it's central shape. It looked very much like a rectangle-shaped firework, but it was absolutely NOT a firework. And we are not 100% sure it didn't make any sound, since we practically screamed as soon as it first lit up the sky. |
