I wasn't aware of any particular meteor shower scoring that night, last night roughly around midnight maybe a little after. I've stayed up late to watch known meteor shower type events that happen every year. This thing was 10 times brighter than anything I've ever seen during the Perseids it any other shower event I've watched. It literally went from complete darkness to like HEYYY FULL MOON BRIGHT for a second of two

Remarks
It came into my view and my whole 2 acres of land went from complete darkness to a bright flash of light as it streamed across and down and it lit up my entire piece of land and surrounding properties. It was like someone turned on a light switch almost.

About two thirds of the way down it's streak path it shattered for lack off a better way to put it, into multiple tiny pieces that then went out very quickly and the darkness came back
