Fireball in the sky!
During my late night walk around 10:23 PM on the Kidston Road multi use path I witnessed a huge fireball traveling approximately south to north on the western skyline. It was beautiful with a trailing tail of fire. I immediately reported the sight to a couple friends but later on I noticed on the news that I was not the only one witnessing the event.
Happy Labour Day! It was interesting for me.
