As I filled the dogs water bowl this morning I saw a bright violet flash in the the northern sky. The light was constant from sky to the tree line where the object started to curve back to the sky at about a 30 degree angle. The object disappear from sight behind the trees. The object was so hot that a blue streak in the air. The light was left for some time after the object disappeared from view. It may have just been a meteor but it was unlike any I have ever seen. It was such a pretty color, the dark sky looked almost dusk from the intense light. I left for work and looked for an in pact sight but nothing was found. The area I live in is far from city light pollution and full of stars. I can see satellites pass in the winter months. I was hoping to find someone else that had saw the same phenomenon. I have been out with the telescope all night looking. Any info would be helpful. So so so cool!!! No Google video or utube video look anywhere near this object.
