I’ve seen many shooting star in my lifetime. This was unlike anything we have ever seen. It was very large and close and bright. One adult and five teenagers witnessed it in Brecksville, Ohio right above our heads.

We saw what looked like a ball of fire and it had a trail behind it. It looked super close almost like it was a firework that was shot off nearby. The ones where there is a ball with a tail.
