I’ve never seen anything like it! My first thought was “is that a shooting star” but it was so much brighter and closer than that. And it didn’t seem to just drop down like something falling out of the sky (a plane or anything) but just flashed across. Incredible to see if it was a fireball!

It started as a light that got brighter and blue- like a blue ball of fire, slightly bigger, then just disappeared at the brightest point- like it just burned up
