The tail was about two fingers thick when you hold your arm out. I presume that it hit somewhere in Finland, or even Russia... or in the sea. If it didn`t burn up of course. But this one was SUPER HUGE! Normally I see meteors from my truck. but this was really exceptional! Anyone know where I can search for info about it?  Swede if you read this please email me; thank you!

I'm from Romania just spotted on sky, a bright light moving very slowly, can't be a plane at leas not commercial - light was to bright, not flashing - also was to big to be a geo satelite in my opinion. Light wa very intensive. I was smoking outside when I saw it, I call my father also, we was amazed. We was watch till disapear to horizont. Incredible.

Around 9:05 PM - GMT +2

Can you confirm any astronomical event?
