| Remarks | My wife and I were standing at our South-facing second-floor bedroom window observing Venus and Jupiter. The fireball suddenly appeared, VERY bright and moving relatively slowly. The fireball was very bright and intense, with a "hot-white", almost bluish color, and remained at that intensity, but did not appear to fragment, before disappearing. |
