Re: (meteorobs) Pennsylvannia Impact
I'm assuming it was between 3, and 3:15am. I am totally amateur with this
stuff, I just decided to go out and watch that night ,because I saw the
reports on websites, that it would be a cool night. I'm still confused as
to why the media hasn't been reporting about it in the past. This
fireball shocked me, the head was literally the size of the moon, "medium"
head size, it shattered at the end into pieces....dot it did have a trail
behind it for about 3 seconds, upon after its "wild disintegration", the
head exploding, it dissappeared.
