What a spectacular sight -- first time in my life I've seen a meteor fireball.

I've seen lots of shooting stars and a few meteors, but never that close or spectacular.

Here in AZ we see them occasionally but none ‘big’.

A couple years back I saw the result of Vandenberg losing a rocket at altitude. It was indescribable other to say the shockwave and colors resulting from fuel dispersal just as the sun was setting made for an apocalyptic picture....and I had no camera...grrrrr.....

This was around 2004-2006ish.
