at about 9 pm on Friday, 9 Apr, 2004, I saw what appeared to be a bright burning object falling directly west by southwest of Ocala, Fl. From the viewable distance, the object appeared to be quite large. I will guess maybe 20 feet in diameter. The falling point was bright white in color followed by red embers just behind the fireball that was followed by a white trail. It was very much larger than any meteor or falling star that I have ever seen. I expected to hear a sonic boom or an explosion as it seemed to crash near the center of Ocala from my viewing position. After reading resent reports, I think this may have been a piece of the Cosmos. I will be glad to give a more detailed report if required.
