| Remarks | The smoke train was in the sky with the fireball, it was very prominent in the front (if that's what you would call it)the end or tail of the train was very faint but you could still see it. I did not see it disappear fully, I did see the fireball fading as it was falling. I think it was way longer then 1000 degrees!! |
