| Terminal flash | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | It was already a bright fireball. The flash was a slight pulse brighter then it faded out over the course of a 1/2 second. |
| Fragmentation | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | It had a small tail, I thought it was a missile given world events. Right before it started to fade out, there were bright prices that seemed to break off the tail. Those peices continued to glow for a fraction of a second after the main body of it faded out completely. They also seemed to travel slightly slower. |
