A what? I have no idea. I just know it fell out of the sky. Please educate me on this. I did see other meteors that looked more like falling stars, and fell much faster than this thing did (or were they just falling stars?). I have a bunch of pictures of those but I liked this picture the best because the sun was cresting the horizon and lit up the sky a little better, and I had the trees in the foreground, rather than just sky.. I'm the farthest thing from an astronomer so any info is appreciated.
