2014-05-25 - Boca Raton, FL - Fireball

Slow moving fireball flys across sky then shoots into space.

I was driving in my neighborhood when I noticed a strange light up in sky.

I quickly pulled over and pulled out camera phone. The light looked like a flame kind of. It looked fire like, I guess a fireball type.

At first I thought it wasn't moving, but when I stopped I noticed it was moving slowly across the sky. I thought maybe I would hear a noise, maybe it was a hot air ballon, I thought, but it was completely silent.

Then I thought, no air ballon, what is this.

I tried playing with zoom on my camera then lost it in the camera but I kept my eye on the flame, fiery, fireball like object as it slowly flew across sky.

Then, it all of sudden went from a very slow rate of speed, to the speed of light, at an angle into space. Only a short line or trail of light was seen angled in to space. If I blinked I would have missed it. It was gone!
