Never seen anything like this. I’ve been watching meteor showers when I remember to pay attention to for 30 years. This was something I’ve never ever seen before

Remarks
I didn’t think to connect it but I was letting the dogs out and yes there was a significant sound. I can’t remember if it was before or after I saw the shooting star. It happened so fast and I’ve never seen anything like it. I’ve seen probably 50 shooting stars in my life all over the US- I ve never seen anything like this

Remarks
It looked like a shooting star on steroids. A ball of fire and it had a trail. It was more orange or even reddish. The trail was maybe at least 3 fists but it was just seconds.
