Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I am a firm believer in extra terrestrial life and keep a watching the sky for any 'activities'. This fireball was noticed by mt 7 year old son. We both ran to have a better view, but by the time I switched on my mobile to click it, I felt it had changed direction and faded away. I believe it changed direction in 90 degrees from its original tragectory; that is it was travelling from my left to right and it changed direction and went towards the Sun. It was in the East, in the area where the Sun was rising. Here the Sun rose at 7:15 am on that day. Regards, Ashish Dumbre
