Before dark yesterday a huge bright golden light was seen, before it exploded and shot off on a right hand downward trajectory.

Before nightfall last night as the sky was slightly fading but not yet dark- a huge brightly lit golden light was sited south to the city of Sydney (31/3/07)-before it seemed to explode and at light speed headed on a right hand downwards trajectory. Trailing behind it was a long golden light tail.

Approx. one hour later- after telling a friend of this- again we were looking at the sky in a similar position, this time it was compelely dark- the exact thing happened again! It reminded me of a shooting star, however this was much more intense and closer to earth then I had ever witnessed before. And since the first episode happened before any other star was visible in the night sky- it has really confused me.
