I don't know if the degrees are exact, but it was so close I thought it was going to land on me.

Remarks
I saw it as it was just about 100 feet over my head, I thought it was coming straight at me and as it burned out it was about 50 feet above ground. It\\\'s night time, so I couldn\\\'t see where it landed.

Fragmentation was at the end when it started to burn out, little pieces came off and fizzled out. It was about the size of a basketball.
