| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This was of massive size and heading to earth near by, heard it might of been Thomaston GA area. I have seen meteors before but this was huge and beautiful colors with amazing sparkles coming out of it. Some business must have it on film if they knew to look for it, two other coworkers going home saw it to and I am sure more did. I feel honored to have seen a once in a lifetime big colorful meteor right near where I live. |
