| Remarks | I could see a main piece of something fall, it was bigger than anything I had ever seen fall from the sky and looked like it was close. It was bright blue and the tail was almost rainbow colored with visible orange, red and yellow. So amazing, I just stared at it as it fell and I felt like it was only a mile away from me and it looked closer down than the airplanes in the sky, although I know that was probably not the case. |
