Name | Jerry R |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | It was such a wonderful and scary site. My first thought was OMG I hope know-one is hurt, then I hope it did not hit my house. I would love to know if anyone else experienced this? I am an avid fan of Spacex and watch and study space flight daily. I can not get over what I experienced. |

Duration | 4s |
Length | 20° |
Remarks | It was bright streak as it fell to the horizon, then left a large trail of burning fragments that dissipated as the fragments cooled off loosing visibility. The trail was about 20 deg. of glowing train, I do not recall smoke. It was so unreal. |

Fragmentation | |
---|---|
Observation | Yes |
Remarks | Again the fragments trailed the initial streak, the objects looked like many fragments burning up in the atmosphere. I live very close to the direction it fell to the horizon, I thought that it may be close to my home. Very exciting to me, but scary. |
