Experience Level

Remarks
I seen many shooting stars on my predawn walks. This was actually behind me and lite up the area like car turning on it bright Lights. I turned around to see it pass by me. It was like a bright white glowing ball with a long trailing burning tail. (A very low big shooting star) It passed by very quickly. I would say maybe two minutes later , (after there was no light) there was a conclusion type sound as if something had hit the ground.
