Observer
Name David D
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks The sky was dark and hazy. The fireball and its tail was seen in a location in the sky that aircraft may approach to land at the nearby The Ohio State University Airport, 2160 W Case Rd, Columbus, OH 43235 USA. Did I see an aircraft's headlight? I don't believe so, but it's possible.
