| Remarks | This was bigger than any "falling star" I've ever seen. My first thought was, I wonder what NASA is up to. I mean this thing was huge, bright white and it was going down. I wonder if it landed in Florida and on top of someone. It seemed too big to be able to disintegrate before hitting at that speed. I really want to know what that was. |
