Fireball/Meteor Seen From Northern Montana

Posted: November 20, 2008

Time: Early evening.

You were interested in finding out how far people saw the Nov. 20th, 2008 meteor. We live in Northern Montana a few miles south of the Alberta/Montana border and about half way between the Coutts and Wild Horse border crossings.

Several of us saw this bright light which to me at first was like a falling star but it did not burn out as usual. It started and then suddenly got brighter as a slight explosion and got wider and it seemed like it hit earth or at least went out of sight before burning out. To me it seemed like a white then yellow/orange color.

Sounds like some saw it east of Edmonton. I know distances of fire, flames and smoke are deceiving and especially at night but I would have never guessed it to be that far North. It will be interesting to find out its more accurate location. Hope this helps.

Thank you to the witness for their report.
