| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was the most shocking and amazing thing we ever saw. My BF saw it too and he thinks he actually saw it explode. We both saw the bright, sparkling white head and the long orange fiery tail. It lasted way longer than a shooting star and went horizontal, over our heads from east to west. Totally silent. |
