RemarquesThis was SMALL compared to the last one I saw in 2012 (Event 2117-2012). That one wasn’t a fireball, it was a giant orange-glowing, slowly-tumbling ROCK crossing the sky almost overhead (similar to satellite speed). It was half the apparent diameter of the moon. That event lasted about 30 seconds and I could easily see its rough surface as it tumbled (approx 1 rotation per 3-5 seconds), heading west. At first it was glowing orange but no flame or smoke, then it stopped glowing (but was still visible) before I lost sight of it past the roofline as it was apparently bouncing off our atmosphere. At that altitude, using an arc-second calculator (half-moon diameter, 20-40 miles overhead based on moderate atmospheric heating of the relatively slow-moving object), the object was about 0.1-0.2 miles in diameter. Neighbors corroborated this amazing event.
