I have never in my life seen anything even close to similar to what I saw tonight, never a shooting star or anything like that! I called my husband merely seconds after I saw it and told him about it and then I made a post on FB about 5 minutes after and people started saying they saw it too! Seriously! AWESOME!

It almost looked like something exploded in the air but it happened so fast it lit up my entire living room! I have a huge window in the front of my house I saw it perfectly! The most amazing thing I have ever seen in my entire life!
