Observer
Name Tiffany B
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks We had just turned out of my son’s school parking lot heading west when this fireball dropped straight down out of the sky in front of us. It was large, bright, and glowing blue-green-white. It moved slower than a typical shooting star but still fast, and it was incredibly beautiful, it took our breath away. My husband and I both gasped out loud. Our kids were in the backseat and only heard us ‘aww’ but didn’t see it. It was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before.
