Never seen it in my life I thought it was a shooting star just picked my husband up from work 3am central time we life in Griffith Indiana and as we were driving down the street I saw it falling from the sky towards the ground and it was on fire as it was falling but falling super fast like it was only like 2-3 seconds wish I could get a piece of it I'm sure it hit the ground somewhere not too far from me just awesome I could witness that I love science and space❤
