This report has been linked to the following event: Event 4835-2016
Observer
NameEmily N
Experience Level1/5
RemarksHusband and I were following each other in two separate cars. When we got home, I asked "did you see that light fall from the sky??" and he said "oh my gosh! You saw it, too!?" We ruled out possibilities like reflection off a cable line and a plane crashing (as it was very near a small airport), and were left with no idea what it could be other than a huge shooting star, comet or meteor. The area is so remote and it was so late, I doubt anyone else saw it...but I hope so!
