I didn’t see it hit the ground or hear anything but I have never seen a comet get so low and then Disappear. I have seen a lot of comets and that wasn’t even the craziest one I’ve seen but it was for sure the lowest I’ve seen. I’m super curious if it touched ground and where it was considering I live in a populated area.
