| Remarks | Seems the same meteor reported in the news except that I was facing opposite the Atlantic, where it seems other people saw the meteor. I figure it must have been a different fragment of the same thing? At any rate, I've seen a few very bright fireballs and this one, while not the biggest in size, was the brightest and longest so far. It seemed to move slow and it dropped almost vertically from almost straight west. |
