| Name | Tera K |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving in my car when the fireball came down very close, but I watched it disappear from my sight going south on Hidden Meadows Drive, Arlington, TN over trees. So, it probably flew over I-40 near Memphis. The fireball was brighter than green fireworks. I can't believe what I saw. It was beautiful and amazing, and also a little startling. It kinda crept up on me. |
