It was beautiful and looked as if it was low enough that it would land in the pacific just off Malibu beach. I have seen “shooting stars” far away in the sky but this came in so low it almost looked like a rocket on fire just above the ridge line and several of us at the Leo Carrillo camp ground were fortunate to see it. Thanks!
