| Remarks | It appeared to be very thick, bright and glowing just behind the meteor, much like a jet trail. Was smokey and thinned out towards the end. I really don't remember seeing any color, just pure bright white light. *Note: I am an artist and have studied color. The trail was very long, thin and opaque and became thicker in diameter and more smokey towards the end. |
