| Remarks | i see fireballs/meteors very often, decided to start reporting... oh, and this one, like most i see, burnt out in mid-air. (i apologize, but my date/times are approximate for this siting...i will be more deliberate in gathering details from now on... i could be off as much as a day or two... but because this one was so grand, i decided to tell you guys anyhow) . i am sure that there is much more to come...very soon too! |
