Has anyone else reported the meteor over South-Western Ontario last night? I was standing in the midst 'downtown' of Sauble Beach, Ontario (ie "
at the lights") when I saw the fireball blazing low in the due East (maybe Alt 35-40, Az 70-80) travelling due north at the speed of a fast commercial jet and nearly horizontal, as bright as a streetlight. At first I thought it was an unusually bright craft, but quickly realized it could not possibly have
lights that bright. The light travelled along for about seven or eight seconds after I'd spotted it (it was already bright when I noticed it) and then all at once broke into a stream of perhaps a dozen lights spacing out along the flight path. The fragments then each quickly faded out and disappeared. By the time I had my phone out and the app loaded to post a report, my clock read 9:09 ET.
I checked the google news and the blogs this morning, but saw no other reports.
Our life has no end in just the way in which our visual field has no limits.
