Remarks
At the end it looked like a ball with the same brightness and intensity of star in the sky but was dropping what appear to be slower than expected to the earth. After the burning trail was gone, it took around another 30 seconds to fall completely into the horizon of the ocean.
Terminal flash
Observation
Yes
Remarks
I saw the visible light go completely out and then reappear twice. I did not see anything that appeared to be framentation.
