| Remarks | I was on a lighted tennis court, and the sky was fully dark. I suddenly saw the meteor through the trees around the court. It looked like it was traveling directly away from me and descending slowly and then went out. The white center was very bright. The yellow, orange, and red areas were almost like wings. I have seen many shooting stars, but nothing like this one. |
