| Name | Melissa F |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | We were in the car, driving west on I70, somewhere north of Denver. We were still east of Wadsworth Boulevard. The car clock said 5:34 pm. The fireball was brighter than a star, and fell rapidly. If there was any direction it was slightly from the north to south- but mostly just down. |
