Fw: [yowusa_space] Bright fireball spotted in
Holland
Date: 11/5/00 3:41:11 PM Pacific Standard Time
Kent,
below a message that I posted this weekend after a sighting of an extremely
bright meteor in Holland last Friday evening. I'd like to know if there's
anyone else having seen it. It was bright green and left a red-orange
trail.
Almost all across the sky..
