| Name | Luke J |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was out biking in my neighborhood around 10 pm ET. A bright flash in the sky up ahead caught my attention and caused me to look up. At first I thought someone must have been setting off fireworks, but when I looked up it was a big fireball meteor streaking down and to the left in the sky ahead. It was orangish-whiteish, and I could see what looked like flames swirling off of it. It was the biggest meteor fireball I have ever witnessed. It appeared almost as wide in diameter as the full moon, which was also out at that time. |
