| Name | Diane M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | There was a second fireball that occurred 5-10 minutes later. That one was a blue color and my daughter and I both saw it. Same duration from the same direction. We figured it was a meteor since they were so large and appeared so close, so I looked online to see if one was expected in our area, Also I’ve never seen a meteor or shooting star that had colors. Truly amazing, I hope you can learn more from this report! |
