It seemed very close. To the point of me wondering where it was going to land! A little alarming at first but a great experience!

Remarks
It was very bright and glowing. The ball seemed to sparkle the closer it got to earths atmosphere. It just fizzled and disapeared into the woods as I was driving down the interstate.
