I was lucky enough to witness it too.

I was driving down my street and I saw the world in front of me light up from a fireball in the sky accompanied by a loud roar. I had no reference as to what this was – a missile? A plane going down? Surely it was travelling too fast for those though.

As it passed over to the East I waited with tensed shoulders for what was to come next, I assumed a large impact or explosion, but thankfully exhaled after a few seconds and simply silence was what came next.

Remarkable experience!
