| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I am pretty shaken up about the entire experience. I was traveling north on hwy 41 in oshkosh when I saw the entire landscape turn bright blue. It had a white flash then I looked out my passenger side window and saw a huge, beautiful meteor burning in the sky. I took in the ball first and then the trails. It had a gorgeous dark blue tail but the ball burned bright yellow with orange and white flares. I have never seen something so intense, I thought I was going to catch debris it felt so close. It was definitely an out of body experience. I am happy to share more if need be. Thank you. Eric Ash |
