Reports Report 643cl (Event 643-2019)

Observer
Name Jim M
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks If you draw a line between my location and Norwood Colorado, that is very close to the precise heading at it's lowest observed point. I was driving so I couldn't really stop and stare like I wanted to, but I am pretty sure it kind of went supernova just before it got to the horizon. I don't think it was still burning when it reached my horizon. I did not see any fragmentation, but it was a beautiful fireball!
