Shape: Light
Duration:1-3 minutes
Looking toward the southern(145'SSE, three of my finger widths under the star Rho Pup) night sky, I saw what I thought at first was an Airplane, but then I saw a bright redish orange glow almost like a ball eminate/explode from this object and fall straight towards the earth, at that point I thought I witnessed a collision of some sort, until I realized that the original object(a white light)continued in a straight steady course like a satelite(which I have seen several of before)however I could not understand what the explosive ball was so I called the FAA and reported it, and they said my report would be logged in! Logged in as what though? I don't know!

Same as above(q.v.)
