Pretty sure this was nothing other than a Meteor but it hit probaly a few miles from my house or thats the way it looked at least ..was a super bright ball of light that appeared to of exploded in the air, but im guessing that was it passing though the ionisphere <think thats what its called> it went from a bright ball of light then entered the ionisphere and dimmed for a fraction of a second then thats when it looked like it exploded back into a bright ball of light again, it was probaly headed at a downward angle of 60 degrees and had to of hit the ground somewhere ..
