Yeah. It was fairly small, just a little bigger than the stars.

I saw one launch and it left weird colors in the sky. It was the big news in SD when it happened.

Does anyone remember the comet of 2000 (or 2001/2... I forget). I saw it pass by Earth. It was huge and looked kind of like a fast-moving sun. I only found out it was a comet last year though, always wondered what it was until then.

It looked sort of like that only on a different angle and it was a bit bigger.

There's a better one, just minus a lot of the smoke and replace it with fire.
