I’m kind of interested in astronomy and observed Comet Neowise from my bedroom window
when it came close to Earth. Last winter I saw a meteorite with a blue tail. This looked nothing like that. No tail, more like a very big explosion and I was actually a bit frightened because it lasted several seconds. There sky was all clear and I could see the stars so it could definitely not have been lightening.

Remarks
At first I thought it was a very big lightening, but it continued for seconds, and then it ended in what looked like kind of an explosion or double explosion.
