| Terminal flash | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | The fireball dropped down like a large, dark paratrooper with a glowing green ball on the bottom and then stopped/hung for a moment [like a stone skipping across a pond] as it fired off again and blazed a larger green flash, probably was breaking up in the atmosphere. Might have been a dark cloudy trail, the treeline made that hard to tell. |
| Fragmentation | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | It came down with a glowing green bottom but stopped and fired off a bigger brighter green and dark green flash. |
