| Remarks | The size of a jumbo jet, way too close to us in the sky. We noticed that it was morphing-small off shoots of a meteorite that sparkled and then disappeared. Must have been approximately 15 different off shoots, which mostly stayed in a mass, and then fizzled away behind the building. Red/orange hues, with white sparkling ends. |
