Shape: Fireball | Duration: Undisclosed
Source:

I was driving home from Marquette to Gladstone while going south on U.S. 41 towards Rapid river when I witnessed 2 fireballs descending in the sky approximately 10 minutes apart. The first one went across while the other descended straight down below tree-line. These were very large in size and extremely luminous .The first one dissipated and the second one descended down into tree line in South east area of sky towards Rapid river/Gladstone.The weather conditions were extremely clear.
