So i saw something really cool on my way for pho at 230am (godbless 24hour pho places!)
I was driving with a friend down the highway near the boundary exit...
at first it looked to be firework coming from fairly high up..
then i realized it couldnt be a firework by its course and speed

it was meteorite! or something of that nature.. it started to burn up after maybe a second or two and the sky lit up to a dawn type color in a circular area around the head.. and it just burnt up into nothingness..
ive never seen a meteor/meteorite so close up.. id say it was pretty close to the ground before it burnt up.. def lower than an airplane would fly... maybe like 40 stories up or something.. my friend and i thought it was the most amazing thing when we saw it burn up.. definetly not something you see more than once in your lifetime i would say...

i wish i had a digital camera with me to capture. would have been an amazing picture. i doubt there would have been enough time to react even if i did have one though

and 24hr pho was good
:)
