| Remarks | meteorite first came into the atmosphere with a light yellow color and then burst into a larger fireball that was blue and very bright, then it sizzled into red/orange when it struck down to where it looked like it had hit the earth, though we didn't see the impact due to brush/trees off in the distance between us and the impact site. |
