I was looking out the window and thought I saw an airplane's headlight coming toward me, but we don't have big planes here so I kept watching. Then I thought it was a plane on fire! Then I realized it was a fire ball. It went behind part of the roof so I ran to another window but it was gone.

Remarks
I didn't see a trail. I was looking out the window and thought I saw an airplane's headlight coming toward me, but we don't have big planes here so I kept watching. Then I thought it was a plane on fire! Then I realized it was a fire ball. It went behind part of the roof so I ran to another window but it was gone.
