Just saw huge meteor

Anyone else see it? Over southeast sky, blew through the cloud cover and towards the ground, BRIGHT green, huge beam if light, then almost like a burst/explosion of light and it was gone!

Watch out for some crazy new superhero on the streets soon, or something.

Apparently people as far away as Kansas city saw it?!?! It was crazy. Early reports suggest it hit near Prairie du Chien, wi. Just south of La Crosse. Several reports of homes shaking afterwards.

Re: Just saw huge meteor

I saw one of those a month ago. One it disappeared I kept staring at the sky hoping to see it again, It felt like i saw a bunch of stars with light strings at the end. My friend thought i sniffed to much of the brake cleaner because we were working on his brakes!

That was my Engine Backfiring that's all no worry's! Soon DSM will be used in space missions!
