| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I’ve never seen a fireball before. I’m 50 years old, and the sighting was shocking to me. I was driving on Palomar Airport road, due west, I imagine it landed in the ocean. Palomar Airport control tower & others must have seen it. I wonder if Camp Pendleton shot something in the air and then it fell Straight down, like a giant burning star, in honor of today being September 11... 2021. Not sure. Thank you. |
