I used to teach astronomy. I don’t take reporting lightly. It was so low to the ground, my heart was pounding. I wish I had the proper equipment to search for fragments in the woods.

Remarks
It seemed to have been falling into the woods behind my house. It was bright and I was panicked that something would start a fire in the trees. I saw it only about 20ft up from the ground initially. I tried to look for pieces in the morning but I don’t have a metal detector
