Remarks It left a trail behind it for 2-3 seconds and appeared to break apart and go in 5-6 directions. It seemed to move much slower than the typical white streak across the sky associated with asteroid showers in August. My guess from it's angle is it did this probably near Johnstown, Ohio.

Remarks Kind of looked like the smaller fireworks that goes up half way and boom for the finale's except it came down from the sky and covered a much larger distance than a firework would.
