i was driving on my way home, I PULL UP TO A STOP SIGN WHERE I MUST TURN RIGHT OR LEFT, IN FRONT OF ME IS A HOUSE WITH A HILL BEHIND IT. WHILE I AM SITTING AT THE STOP SIGN A BIG ASS FIREBALL FLYS FROM MY RIGHT TO LEFT GOIN DOWNWARD AT A SLIGHT ANGLE, WHEN THE OBJECT WAS OUT OF SIGHT(BEHIND THE HILL BEHIND THE HOUSE) THE WHOLE SKY LIT UP IN A RED COLOR JUST LIKE THE COLOR OF THE TAIL OF THE OBJECT. FROM MY KNOWLEDGE I KNEW THART IT WASNT A SHOOTING STAR BECAUSE THIS THING WAS FREAKEN HUGE AND IT WAS RED AND I KNOW IT HIT THE EARTH BECAUSE IT LIT UP THE SKY LIKE IF IT HAD CRASHED
