Remarks | I was driving, unfortunately, saw at first what looked like a normal but brighter than average shooting star in the clear night sky thru windshield. Alerted wife when it burst into a bright white light with a flaming tail. Wife said she saw blue and green, I had to turn my eyes down back on the road since we were moving fast on Hwy. |
